The Use of Insight in Management Decisions.

Abstract

This thesis hypothesizes that insight is the key element in effective decision-making. It approaches this position by developing a basic model of the environment in which the manager functions, showing the resources at his disposal. It then describes the contributions of the technologies which form the knowledge base for decision-making. Next, it distinguishes between intuition and insight, and demonstrates that it is insight which is the basis for the effective manager's art.
