In this vlog, two learning and development business partners, Andrew and Ben, take on a skill everyone uses every day: decision making, framed within strategic thinking - the leadership competency of seeing the bigger picture, anticipating trends and proactively shaping the future rather than reacting to the present.

After playing a short clip on decision "filters" - choosing by what excites you rather than only the money or the easy option, because chasing the result alone leads to a plateau - they unpack seven elements of good decision making: clarity of purpose (the why behind the decision), quality of information, critical thinking from first principles, emotional intelligence and awareness of bias, stakeholder involvement at the right time, risk awareness without becoming risk-averse and paralysed, and timeliness - neither rushing nor delaying.

Along the way they cover delegation as pipeline-building for future talent, why time management is "a bit of a fallacy" compared with deciding what deserves your time, the Eisenhower Matrix (urgent vs important), and creating space to think before deciding.
