Maybe it is Schrodinger's decision; it doesn't become good or bad until the outcome is known.

This is an interesting one.

There are obviously times when you make a bad decision.

But nobody knows the future, and sometimes, you have to make the best decision you can based on the information you have. If the outcome is bad because of unexpected, unplanned, unanticipated events - does that mean you made a bad decision at the time?

It's all about the mindset.

"Never judge a decision by its outcome" could be a very sharp double-edged sword.

For employees: They don't get fired just because there were some bad results while they were honestly doing heir best.

For top management: They don't get blamed even if they sent their whole company down in flames…???

Results. Often harsh, always fair.

Interesting twist to the series! Usually the irony is the folks are blindly unaware of the situation. Here they choose a healthy way to reframe the situation to work with the present outcome. Bravo!

An excellent twist in the tail... perception about the outcome should always be positive focused.

Conflicts of good and bad outcomes are a sickness of the management. [Zen proverb, paraphrased, modernized]
