Research was conducted on the characteristics of and decision time distribution among five general types of recurrent decision problems (task, people, money, information, and other) encountered by first-, second-, and third-level managers. People decisions were reported to be most difficult, task and people decisions about equally important, and task decisions most preferable to make. Overall, these lower-level managers divide their decision time about equally between task decisions and people, money, information, and and other decisions combined. Compared with first-level managers, third-level managers spend less time on task and information decisions and more time on people and money decisions.
