This decision-making process is traditionally drawn from experience, research and resourcing. Basically, when framing a sensemaking decision, my thought process is using questioning techniques by using process of elimination and getting valued opinions by others. Some questions to consider are (1) Does it make sense to do this or that (2) What is the outcome if I use this technique (3) What is the final results I am looking for. These are just a few questions used to consider during framing sensemakeing.

One can also look at a leader as a person who makes sense of reality and frames the sensemaking of organizational members. The last perspective fits more or less with the described leadership framework. Personally I am interested in the way the sensemaking of organizational members can be influenced/framed by leaders. Because I believe that members of organizations act based on their sensemaking of reality. And if that is so, it is an interesting question how a leader can frame this sensemaking. Have you got an idea about this framing of sensemaking? You can look at a leader as one who discovers reality and leads organizational members through this reality.
