			<description><![CDATA[The elements of effective decision making are:
1. The realization that a decision is needed.
2. The definition of the specifications that the answer has to satisfy
3. The thinking through of what is "right", before considering necessary concessions
4. The building into the decision of the action to carry it out
5. The feedback test of the validity and effectiveness of the decision against the actual course of events. (page 242) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Most people don't really know what their strengths are. The only way to find out is though feedback analysis: Whenever you make a decision or take a key action, write down what you expect will happen. Review this vs. the outcome 9-12 months later. You will be surprised. (page 218) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Executives  face four challenges to being effective:
1. Their time belongs to everybody else.
2. They need to focus on what's important based on criteria outside the flow of events.
3. They need to work through people outside their direct control in order to create results.
4. They need to look beyond the organization as results are only defined outside of it. (page 197) --scribilus]]></description>
