Most of the significant decisions in contemporary organizations are made under which decision-making condition?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

A state of uncertainty.

Explanation:

The state of uncertainty is a condition of decision making that can be defined as the risk associated with the manager of making an ineffective decision to solve the expected problem. This is due to the complexity of the current business environment, which ensures that there are inherent risks when making a decision, since there are many variables involved in the current competitive market whose manager does not have full knowledge, so uncertainty exists when making a complex decision.

What the manager can do to minimize uncertainty is to adopt an analytical thinking that gathers the available information and his experience so that risks are minimized, such as the use of statistical analysis and analysis of the variables involved in the decision-making process, to judge the least risky option and try to make the right decision.
