What are the types of decisions taken in the company and at what types of information they match?

Thanks for invitation,

I do believe that all organization's decisions has to be within the frame and match its vision, mission and main strategic plan.

All other day-to-day procedures are in somehow due to, what we call "Market Conditions", in order to adapt with short and medium term expectations.  

I think that generally speaking, decisions are made at all levels of the organization. From the floor up, decisions are made on a daily basis to ensure that the company operates efficiently and effectively to meet its objectives. From the janitor who must decide how well he does his work, to the CEO, they must all decide their level of commitment to the company and act accordingly.  Not only is commitment required, but skill and knowledge and how these are applied are major factors in decision making to achieve success. Decisions made with the commitment, skill and knowledge of the individual within the wider context of the strategic goals of the organization will result in high performing organizations.

Information about strategic goals must there fore communicated to all levels, and there must be commitment to those goals.

The CEO must have information regarding present trends in the business area, forecasts, and emerging trends to form and create strategy. The CEO must also have information on performance measured against goals so as to take decisions of a strategic nature.

Executive Management must have data and information regarding performance in their specific areas, and report to the CEO. 

Middle managers must have information of targets and whether those targets have been achieved

Team leaders and workers must have specific instruction to perform.

There is another level of decision making that is needed. That is at the level of ownership. Owners/shareholders must be appraised of performance so as to make decisions regarding future direction  of investments etc.

Traditionally, these different spheres have been classified as Strategic, Operational and Tactical.

Agree on experts answers. Thanks for your invitation.

There are several decisions taken in a company 

;

Management - Strategic , Operational, Financial, Marketing, Sales etc

• Strategic decisions are big choices of identity and direction. Who are we? Where are we heading? These decisions are often complex and multi-dimensional. They may involve large sums of money, have a long-term impact and are usually taken by senior management.
• Tactical decisions are about how to manage performance to achieve the strategy. What resources are needed? What is the timescale? These decisions are distinctive but within clearer boundaries. They may involve significant resources, have medium-term implications and may be taken by senior or middle managers.
• Operational decisions are more routine and follow known rules. How many? To what specification? These decisions involve more limited resources, have a shorter-term application and can be taken by middle or first line managers.
