    A common decision making mistake is relying on individuals who feel they have the most experience, or are most affected by an outcome and therefore believing that they have the most knowledge to make the right decision. Simply because I am Canadian does not mean that I am the best person to go to for a problem that effects Canadians. As a business student, I see this often with group work. We could be working on a case study and one group member will suggest an answer that is far different then everyone else. Once people begin to complain the individual will say something like "well I have x years (sometimes months) of experience in the field that the business in the case study operates in". Too often, this appeases the group. In reality, it should not.
