Making and implementing decisions is the core activity of leadership and\nany kind of cooperation. Every decision is preceded by an evaluation process.\nThe subsequent implementation process requires ratings as well as the follow-up\nreview of the achievement of the given objectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a person is born to make decisions, he is also forced to constantly evaluate  considering that – as Ernst P\u00f6ppel once calculated – he makes 20,000 decisions a day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Decisions
Figure 01: Decisions per Day<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The majority of these ratings take place without being accessible to the conscious mind. If these highly functional rating processes are to be consciously carried out in humans and decisions are to be made safely and on time, the basic prerequisite is a standardized and accepted rating system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KiE scale <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The KiE scale allows quick and clear evaluations and always forces a clear decision. The internal structure of the KiE Scale is suitable for all types of decisions: 
1. Leading question – precise focus
2. KiE scale type – guaranteed decision – here with the functional area on the right
3. Areas of meaning – action orientation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"KiE
Figure 02: KiE scale structure<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The manifold cognitive biases that lead to distorted ratings and bad decisions are either excluded by the KiE scale, compensated for by group competence or considerably reduced:
1. loss aversion is largely avoided by the asymmetry of the KiE scale
2. the various anchoring effects are avoided by the simultaneous uncovering of the KiE cards as well as by an anonymously released evaluation by the KiE-DecisionMaker
3. the “response biases” along with the various effects of an open rating in a team situation or with the participation of managers, but also the effects of a closed or internal rating can be reduced by the internal logic of the KiE scale, or  completely avoided.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KiE scale is just as suitable for individual as for team decisions\nand serves as a standardized and accepted rating for all DecisionMaking\nprocesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highly functional rating processes that the individual performs in about 20,000 decisions per day could never have been consciously processed due to their number and duration. With the KiE scale, however, they can be decoded effortlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KiE scale maps intuition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The central importance of intuition and its lightning-fast access to\nexpert knowledge for decision-making is undisputed. However, the simple impulse\nfrom intuition is not sufficiently differentiated.  The KiE scale does not have a middle ground\nand thus always forces a decision. The missing vanishing point don\u2019t allow not\nmaking a decision. The KiE scale\u2019s inner structure is therefore suitable for\nthe conscious use of intuition and reproduces it precisely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this characteristic, the scale can be used equally for intuition and cognition. This is the only way to combine intuition and cognition into a decision strategy.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"KiE

The KiE scale supports intuitive as well as cognitive decision making\nand is easy to document. This transparency opens the way for the use of group\ncompetence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gamification and application<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The flexibility of the KiE scale makes it a universal, accepted and standardized rating system for all agile ceremonies as well as for all decision-making processes, traditional meetings and ratings as well as surveys of all kinds. The size of the groups as well as the respective situations provide orientation:
1. KiE cards and the KiE app for interactions Face2Face with 2 to 24 people
2. flipchart with sticky dots for moderations with from 15 to 120 participants. The size can be scaled by dividing the flipchart into groups
3. KiE-DecisionMaker as a cloud service for groups of any size that can also participate Face2Face, online, remotely and globally in ratings and DecisionMaking processes
4. embedded in collaboration tools, especially for agile ceremonies  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Gamification\"

With the KiE scale type (right), which has the functional area on the right in ascending order from left to right, many application areas can be covered. For a flexible system for arbitrary evaluation, different natural scale types, standardized scales such as the Net Promoter Score as well as individual scales are mapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Die

The transparency of the KiE scale opens the way to use group competence\nand lets everyone have their say at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team evaluation – an uninfluenced rating in a few seconds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The KiE scale allows 100% involvement of all parties participating in an evaluation and decision-making process. That is, everyone has their say at the same time: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
