METHODS OF OPTIMIZATION OF MANAGEMENT PROCESSES AND DECISION-MAKING
This article discusses methods for optimizing management decisions. Such methods include various approaches that ensure finding the maximum and minimum values, with the selected criteria. The following methods are considered in the article: mathematical modeling, game theory, brainstorming, expert assessment method. The method of mathematical modeling allows us to estimate the problem in a quantitative measure, creating a definite model for the task. Game theory helps to find the optimal solution with such limitations as the actions and resources of competitors, as it develops a strategy for behavior in a conflict situation. Brainstorming is a method that creates new solutions, as well as evaluates or analyzes based on a group discussion of a problem according to certain rules. The expert assessment method is used to solve problems that are difficult to solve by the formal method, and can be used for analysis and forecasting, determining development factors for a specific management decision, identifying criteria for making optimal management decisions, and evaluating these criteria. The main goal of this method is to find the optimal solution to the problem, based on the opinion of a group of people competent in the field of the problem being solved.
