Answer 1

Answer:

b. evaluating alternatives

Explanation:

Decision making process involves identifying a problem, defining the decision criteria, determining the decision type, generating alternatives, evaluating and selecting the best possible alternative,

A problem is defined when a gap exists between actual and desired state. Next step is to identify the organizational criteria upon which decisions would be based.
