are key in regard to decision making:
View Video:
Learn
all the facts in regard to the situation then make the best decision based
on the available data. Example maybe having a hybrid set-up (on premise and
cloud) makes sense for the organization.
Do
your homework – get all the facts then research what others have done.
Example maybe out of the box functionality can be utilized instead of custom
coding.
Examine
pros and cons – think about every angle for what is trying to be obtained
then go with the best course of action. Pros and cons maybe return on
investment, buy vs. build, etc.
Align resources with objectives – list of
what needs done then decide best resources and setup time frames for work to be
completed.
