The single most important thing that leaders do is make goodjudgment calls. In the face of ambiguity, uncertainty, and conflicting demands, often under great timepressure, leaders must make decisions and take effective actions to assure the survival and success oftheir organizations. Good leaders not only make better calls, but they are able to discern the reallyimportant ones and get a higher percentage of them right.Judgment is a ProcessMany times people think of judgment as the moment someone makes a decision. In fact, leadershipjudgment must be viewed as a process. There are three phases:1. Preparation: Sensing and identifying the need for a judgment call, framing and naming the call, andmobilizing and aligning the right people.2. Making the Call: Determining when there is sufficient information given the time horizon to make thecall. The call must be communicated clearly.3. Execution: Following up to provide resources and keep people mobilized to support the call.Good judgment is based on getting desired results, no matter how intellectually sound the original callmay be. Throughout these phases, leaders constantly revisit their judgments to adjust and improvethem. These are redo loops where the call can be changed or reversed based on changingcircumstances, better information, or feedback from action.
