6 Cyert, March, and Simon’s Model of Decision-Making
Developed by Richard Cyert, James March, and Herbert Simon, originally at Carnegie-Mellon University.  This model is the organizational analog of the bounded rationality approach at the individual level.  It emphasizes: bounded rationality (limited time & mental capacity of managers, limited information & resources, so a rational solution often cannot be derived) there is often disagreement among managers about goals, so decision making often necessitates the formation of coalitions of managers who agree on goals and priorities; thus the Cyert-March-Simon model emphasizes the political process involved in decision making hence, managers tend to engage in a problemistic search (= looking around for a quick solution in the immediate, local environment, rather than trying to develop the optimal solution) thus, solution is often chosen to "satisfice" (satisfy + suffice) rather than optimize

10 Collaboration framework

11 What is Groupware? Definition: Aliases: Interpersonal computing
Systems that integrate computers and communications systems to implement group techniques to support communication, coordination, and decision making via structuring the processes and contents of team work Aliases: Interpersonal computing Computer-support cooperative work (CSCW) Group decision support systems (GDSS) Computer-mediated communication systems Workgroup computing

12 Teamwork and GDSS Same Time Different Time Same Place Different Place
Project/team rooms Shared offices Same Place Multi-media presentation systems Key-pad based voting tools Facilitated meetings using a PC Networked PCs based GDSS Different Place Shared document database Group authoring tools Discussion forum Screen sharing Audio/video conferencing Web-based desktop conferencing Instant messaging
