Harvard Business Review Press HBR's 10 Must Reads on Making Smart Decisions (with featured article "Before You Make That Big Decision..." by Daniel Kahneman, Dan Lovallo, and Olivier Sibony)

Astute decision-making is vital both personally and professionally, and this booklet from the Harvard Business Review contains ten articles that can bolster the reader's decision-making skills. Advice is offered as to how to prevent decisions from going awry—there are tips on how to help your brain avoid snares that can cause bad decisions, spotlights on indicators that procedures need to be reexamined, and pointers on overcoming indecisiveness. The booklet recalls real-world examples in the business world that show the importance of listening to dissenting and skeptical voices in decision-making processes, clarifying who specifically is to make decisions in business situations, spelling out ethical considerations that can be taking into account when making decisions, and comparing the efficacy of long-range planning versus shorter-term horizons in decision making. "On Making Smart Decisions" would be a worthwhile read for those in almost any line of work.

An extremely useful 'must have' for anyone stepping into a management rôle - or wishing to read media articles more critically: Do I have enough information to make a decision/draw a conlusion?

This book is really good, it focuses on the basics as your thinking guide. It helps you analyse from the scratch, what to do and what not to do while making a decision is the main premise.

Excellent book, great articles, very thought provoking
