Achieving clarity on value
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Decision analysis is the pursuit of clarity of action, and lies at the intersection of action and thought. Before moving to clarity of action, we need to achieve clarity of thought on our values so that we can make decisions that are consistent with our deepest values. This dissertation focuses on helping decision-makers achieve such clarity by suggesting frameworks to discover, appreciate and communicate sources of value. Apart from the theoretical contributions, several case studies are presented to illustrate the use of such methods to achieve consistent valuation and aid mutual understanding on value.
