Description:

This text argues that in decision-making a focus should be placed on the bottom-line objectives that give it its meaning. It states that through recognizing and articulating fundamental values, better decision opportunities can be identified, thereby creating better alternatives.

Synopsis:

This work concerns standard decision-making methods. Rather than placing emphasis on mechanics and fixed solutions, Keeney argues, we should focus on the bottom-line objectives that give decision-making its meaning: it is through recognizing and articulating fundamental values that we can better identify decision opportunities - and thereby create better decision alternatives.
