Decision wheel Guide

Introduction

Utilizing a random decision-making approach, such as a decision wheel, ensures that all options are given equal consideration, promoting fairness and inclusivity within the team.

Random decision making can be particularly effective in situations where there’s deadlock or indecision, swiftly moving things forward. It can also prove useful in risk-taking scenarios, bringing a degree of calculated unpredictability that might lead to significant breakthroughs.

Most importantly, it can bring an element of fun and excitement to the decision-making process, fostering a positive team atmosphere and enhancing engagement.
