Workplace Stress
Stress My organization had only limited teamwork. Most people worked by themselves, or in two-person units, so there was a lot of independence. Is it coincidence that decision-making was quick and there was only limited stress? Decision-making is a challenge for many organizations. There are a number of different factors that affect decision-making, including the size of the decision-making team. Where I worked, decisions were decentralized. They were usually minor decisions, but
