This document outlines a 7-step process for analytical decision making. The process involves: 1) listing possible solutions; 2) identifying important values; 3) rating the importance of each value; 4) rating how well each solution achieves each value; 5) multiplying the ratings; 6) adding the results; and 7) repeating for other solutions and comparing the sums. The solution with the highest sum best achieves the decision maker's values.
