Abstract

This study examined the vital approach to understanding leadership decision making in organizational leadership and management activities. The purpose of this paper is focused and centered on the best approach to understanding the leadership decision making process (LDMP) among leaders and managers in organizational activities. This phenomenological qualitative paradigm which focused on essence or structure of an experience was used in order to gain in-depth knowledge and understanding of the issues and challenges affecting effectiveness, clarity, and success among organizational leadership and managements in business practices. Two hundred and sixteen organizational leaders from some cities and states in North America (Canada, Mexico, and United States) participated in this study and identified how they acquired their leadership role, knowledge, and skills. The findings from this investigation suggest that organizational leaders should allow their skilled subordinates - individuals and/or groups to participate in the decision making process mostly when their involvement will enhance the quality and/or acceptance of the decision by everybody at the workplace.
