Good decisions aren’t just about outcomes - they’re about process. Different situations demand different approaches, and teams thrive when they can flex their thinking, challenge assumptions, and draw on diverse decision-making strengths.

When organisations understand their decision-making culture, they can reduce bias, improve speed and quality of decisions, and build stronger alignment between strategy and action.

When individuals understand their decision-making preferences, they can achieve personal competitive advantage.

Improve performance by transforming how leaders and teams make decisions. Identify and optimise decision-making styles to reduce risk, avoid bias, and improve strategic execution.

BeTalent Decision Styles is the only normative questionnaire on decision-making on the Verified Register of the British Psychological Society.

Developed by leading Organisational Psychologists and tested to rigorous standards, the BeTalent Decision Styles tool reflects preference across 10 distinct decision-making styles.

The tool provides a clear, evidence-based profile of how people approach decisions — and how that approach changes under stress or ambiguity.

• Better decisions: Help leaders make faster, fairer, more effective decisions.

• Performance gains: Align decision styles with the business challenges that matter most.

• Scientifically validated results: Built on rigorous research to highlight strengths and risks.

• Trusted processes: Create transparency that builds team and stakeholder trust.
