Management Types

I think there are 2 kinds of people in this world when it comes to decision making and sense of opportunities.

The one type analyses all available offers and then decides what is best.  As they make a very thorough and time-consuming analysis, afterwards it is difficult to change their opinion and also they don't search actively for alternatives as they think to have found the best solution. First other people have to convince them why to give attention to that topic again (if it is not obvious) and then new arguments why another solution is better. Still if that advantage is not big enough, it is difficult to convince them why to change when the first solution is working, stable and therefore less risky.

The other type analyses only a part of the offers and decides more quickly what is the best solution from that part. Afterwards they constantly search if there is a better offer and quickly change their opinion if they see the tiniest advantage.

Both ways have their benefits. The first type is more constant and resistant to temporary hypes and bubbles. The second type is reacting more quickly and therefore will use new business opportunities first. The best would be to have a team with both types in it. The quick type easily finds new chances for improvement while the slower partner is analysing them and slows down the pace of that process to a healthier level. So the most important thing is to first find out what type you are, because that allows you to know your strength and weaknesses and to find a partner to compensate that.
