    The document discusses key concepts for engineering managers related to decision-making, problem solving, and quantitative techniques. An engineer manager cannot avoid making management decisions as addressing problems is inherently decisional. Properly diagnosing issues is important for identifying viable alternatives and evaluating potential solutions. Those implementing solutions must understand and accept them, and problem-solving approaches include developing alternatives and using quantitative methods like Bayesian analysis to assess outcomes under uncertainty.

    BES 3 (ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT)

    1. Can the engineer manager avoid making management decision? Why or why not?

    2. When a problem becomes apparent and the engineer manager chooses to ignore it,
    is he making a decision? Explain your answer.

    3. Why is proper diagnosis of the problem important?

    4. What are the components of the environment from the point of view of the decision-
    maker? What do they consist of?

    5. How many one develop viable alternatives in problem solving?


    6. How many alternative solutions be evaluated?
    7. Why is it important for those who will be involved in implementation to understand
    and accept the solution to the problem?
    8. What are the approaches in solving problem?
    9. What quantitative techniques are useful in decision-making?
    10. What is the purpose of Bayesian analysis?
