When someone is strong in decision making, they do their research and gather the facts first, weighing the pros and cons when necessary. They are able to use a systematic approach to problem solving, and apply emotional information to help, not hurt the process. This helps you avoid making irrational decisions and jumping to decisions that don't always have a positive outcome, or can negatively impact others.
