Decision Making
DIRECTIVE STYLE
When making decisions I tend to follow the Directive Style. People with that decision making style complete tasks quickly, dislike committee and group discussions, impersonal social orientation, is forceful, and practical authoritarian. Others perceive my descision making as autocratic, simplistic, and rigid. The best organizational fit for my type of decision making is one that allows for structured, goal-oriented, such as in bureaucracies, or where power and authority are important.
