This book tries to answer by putting forth meaningful strategies in the context of planning and executive functions. This is based on five broad themes: decisions are based on both emotions and rationality in varying proportions; emotions and rationality are functions of the brain; origin of planning and executive functions engaged in problem-solving, and how these functions are measured from three worlds, viz., world of physical objects, world of conscious and unconscious states and psychological control, and world of cultural products; improvement in planning and executive functions helps in better performance in both educational achievements and managerial decision-making; methods to boost decision-making and planning.
