In order to improve our strength and endurance we decided to try rock climbing. Not only does it require a significant amount of muscle, but also it is enjoyable and challenging. Our first goal was to take baby steps to achieving our goal, first meeting once a month, then continuing to increase our activity to once a week. We hoped that the more frequently we went and with the support and encouragement of our peers the better and stronger we would become. Our team hoped rock climbing would improve our overall physical fitness and ability to work as a team to achieve a goal that is beneficial for our future health.
Then every possible alternative is generated and with their impacts evaluated. Finally the optimal alternative would be chosen. This is the conventional process of decision-making suggested by classical theories. Simon, on the other hand, determined that this is not a realistic approach considering decision-making concepts, he argued that decision makes, who are human, is unable to be rational under environmental constraints and human incapacity. Also, these two factors can have impacts on the behaviour and rationality of the decision maker.
