1. Next…
• Award each plus and minus a score between 1 and 10 in terms of it’s ‘strength’ (we call this ‘potency’.)
• Now look at your obstacles.
- How many are there?
- What score would you attribute to each to describe their potency?
- If the score is less than 5 you may be able to make the decision without addressing the obstacle first

Activity: PMI
• Work alone.
• Try completing a PMI for a real or hypothetical decision to practise using the format for effective decision-making.
![Page 9: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2. Using 6 Colour thinking
• Where is it from? - De Bono, E. (1999) The Six Thinking Hats 2nd
Ed., London: Penguin Books
• What is it?
![Page 10: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2. What do they do?
• Colours = a different way of thinking.
• Helps to break decision-making down into manageable steps.
![Page 11: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• So, it can be summarised like this:
![Page 12: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Activity: Practise with 6 Colour Thinking
• Work with a partner.
• You can take a new real or hypothetical decision OR you can recycle the decision you used previously for the PMI activity.
• Apply 6 Colour Thinking in the order suggested.
![Page 13: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3. Egan’s Skilled Helper model
• Gerard Egan• Use of 3 stages matrix.• ‘Client’s’ issues are central.• It is designed to help people
become better at helping themselves in their everyday lives.
(Egan 1998: 7-8) • Empowering.
![Page 14: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3. How can it help indecision-making?
• The Egan model aims to help the speaker address 3 main questions:
- What is going on?- What do I want instead?- How might I get to what I want?
• It is a powerful tool when used between two people – the Decider and the Helper.
• You can move forwards, backwards, up and down through the model where you see an arrow.

3. How does it work?A Model of the Helping Process (Egan, 1996)
![Page 16: Decision making Planning Organisation 1216640408319045 8](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/555971c9d8b42a65298b495d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Activity: Navigating the Skilled Helper Model
• In pairs or trios apply the model to one another.
• The Helpers ask careful questions to tease out thinking and feeling responses to each stage and level of the matrix.
• The Deciders reply to the Helpers as honestly as possible as they move towards a taking a firm decision.
