Paper Title : Decision Making in Faith Based Organizations (FBO’s)

Authors : Konrad Noronha

Abstract

Spiritual and religious values are often incorporated by Faith-based organizations (FBOs) into their decision-making processes. These values influence many aspects of the organization, that include organizational behaviour, governance, mission, strategic management, development, selection of partners and beneficiaries, staff, organizational culture and decision-making. For FBO’s having a connection with a God of their understanding is often a source of support, guidance, and inspiration in decision-making. The influence of faith on decision-making varies among different organizations and even among different individuals within the same organization. The beliefs and practices of a faith tradition, as well as the personal beliefs of individuals, can play a role. This article seeks to present a Christian viewpoint on decision making in faith-based organization. It seeks to emphasize that spirituality/religiosity become an integral part of the decision-making process in organizations as it could in the long-term positive effect on the organization.

Key words: Decision-making, Faith, Values, Virtues
