This book provides an overview of organizational decision making
and the use of information in the process. In addition, it draws on
original empirical work to establish general principles for design
of information systems, which are tuned to the way managers
actually behave and make decisions at the highest level of the
organization. The book also gives insights into the ways higher
education institutions operate and deal with complex problems that
are messy and have broad political ramifications. It offers a solid
basis for the necessary shared understanding between managers and
information providers that will enable the information resources of
an organization to be effectively harnessed to support decision
making activities. It demonstrates the way decision making occurs
in organizations and shows how information contributes to the these
with a high-level decision group and, on the basis of the empirical
tests, proposed a new theory of complex decision making and
information in organizational settings. For readers interested in
theoretical aspects of complex decision making, or in research in
decision making and information, the book builds on the two
theories of decision making with the highest profiles in the
organizational literature. It also shows new ways of testing those
theories in the real world of organizations.process. A key feature
of this volume is its contribution to the development of a theory
of high-level decision making in organizations that takes into
account the function of information in the process. This is
accomplished through an account of a research project that
formulated two broadly based theories of decision making and
information use, tested
