EDUCATION
Some studies have been conducted on the
relationship between decision-making and
organizational performance. For instance, Andersen
(2004) found that decentralized decision structure
and (strategic) planning activities are associated with
higher organizational performance in dynamic
environments. Likewise, distributed decision
authority, managerial decision-making and strategic
planning processes are all positively correlated with
economic performance (Andersen, 2004). Also,
Scott-Ladd and Marshall (2004) argue that
managerial decision-making has great influence on
the direction of the organization in all spheres, and if
not well taken can be costly to the firm. Empirically,
their study revealed that managerial decision-making
impact positively on the performance of
organizations. Similarly, Ojokuku and Sajuyigb
(2014) emphasize the significance of managerial
decision on organizational performance and, propose
that increasing employee participation in decision-
making will impact positively on their growth and
potential for survival. This suggests that there is a
positive relationship between decision-making and
organizational performance. That is to say, good
decision-making in organizations will result in
increased performance and vice versa.

PENDIDIKAN
Beberapa penelitian telah dilakukan untuk
mengetahui hubungan antara pengambilan keputusan
dan kinerja organisasi. Contohnya, Andersen (2004)
menemukan bahwa struktur keputusan
terdesentralisasi dan aktivitas perencanaan (strategis)
memiliki hubungan dengan tingginya kinerja
organisasi di lingkungan yang dinamis. Demikian
pula dengan otoritas keputusan terdistribusi,
pengambilan keputusan manajerial dan proses
perencanaan strategis, semua hal tersebut memiliki
hubungan dengan kinerja ekonomi (Andersen, 2004).
Scott-Ladd dan Marshall (2004) juga membuktikan
bahwa pengambilan keputusan manajerial memiliki
pengaruh yang besar terhadap arah organisasi dalam
segala bidang, dan jika keputusan tidak diambil
dengan baik, maka akan merugikan perusahaan.
Secara empiris, penelitian mereka membuktikan
bahwa pengambilan keputusan manajerial
berpengaruh positif terhadap kinerja organisasi. Hal
yang sama juga dijelaskan oleh Ojokuku dan
Sajuyigb (2014) tentang betapa pentingnya
keputusan manajerial terhadap kinerja organisasi,
dan mereka mengusulkan bahwa dengan
meningkatkan partisipasi karyawan dalam
pengambilan keputusan akan berdampak positif
terhadap pertumbuhan mereka dan potensi untuk
bertahan. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa ada hubungan
positif antara pengambilan keputusan dan kinerja
organisasi. Dengan kata lain, pengambilan keputusan
yang baik akan berdampak kepada peningkatan
kinerja dan juga sebaliknya.
