The Vroom-Yetton model

The Vroom-Yetton model is a decision-making framework that helps leaders choose the best way to involve their team in making decisions. It considers factors like the importance of team input, the urgency of the decision, and how much expertise the team has. By analyzing these factors, the model guides leaders to select from various approaches—such as making the decision alone, consulting the team individually or collectively, or sharing the decision entirely—to ensure effective, appropriate leadership.
