About the Community Edition

DECIDE WELL: A Free Decision-Making Sample and Practice Guide

Important decisions often have to be made before all the facts are available. This free Community Edition introduces a practical approach to making those decisions more carefully.

It is designed for readers who want a clear process for defining a decision, separating facts from assumptions, comparing options, testing uncertainties and recording the reasons behind a choice.

Use the material to examine your own decisions, practise the method with realistic examples and decide whether the complete book would be useful to your work or personal decision-making.
