Abstract

Some of the newer techniques in managerial decision making are examined, with particular reference to those based on statistical and mathematical principles and the use of management information systems. The creativity approach in its modern form, described as lateral thinking, is reviewed. It is argued that creativity is a skill that can be learnt, like any other skill, and a process of managerial decision thinking is advocated.
