How Personal Values Influence Decision-Making and Priorities

When facts alone do not determine a choice, values can become decision criteria.

The income vs autonomy example

Opportunity A: higher income but less flexibility. Opportunity B: lower income but greater autonomy. The "better" choice depends partly on what the person prioritizes and what constraints they face.

Values do not replace evidence

A sound decision can combine: facts + consequences + constraints + values + priorities.

Particularly useful

When there is no option that satisfies every desirable outcome.

Your values can tell you what matters. Your gifts and skills can help reveal how you may express it.
