What are the decision styles used by a project manager?

Command, Consultation, Consensus, Coin Flip
Analysis, Brainstorming, Delegation, Direction
Discussion, Negotiation, Arbitration, Decision
Planning, Organizing, Leading, Controlling

The correct answer is: Command, Consultation, Consensus, Coin Flip

The correct answer is A. Command, Consultation, Consensus, Coin Flip. These are the four decision styles commonly used by a project manager: - **Command**: The project manager makes decisions without consulting the team. - **Consultation**: The project manager consults with the team before making a decision. - **Consensus**: The decision is made collectively by the team after discussion and debate. - **Coin Flip**: This is a metaphorical decision style where the project manager makes a decision based on chance or random choice, often when choices are equally beneficial. Options B, C, and D do not accurately represent the decision styles used by a project manager, making them incorrect choices for this question.
