"Decision making refers to the 'passing of judgment on an issue under consideration' and 'the act of reaching a conclusion or making up one's mind." (Engleberg & Wynn, 2010).
"Problem solving is a more complex process in which groups analyze a problem and develop a plan of action for solving the problem or reducing its harmful effects" (Engleberg & Wynn, 2010).
