1.0 Executive Summary
This report provides an analysis for boundless rationality concepts and how it causes biasness in decision making. Secondly the report analyses how concepts of bounded rationality can be applied in different scenarios to give a clear understanding of them. Upon its findings the report will make recommendations to managers and organization employees on how to avoid boundless rationality. The methods of analysis include literature review of currently available resources along with an-depth analysis of boundless rationality.
The various recommendations include:
I. Ensure that they follow a rationale step to step decision making process
II. Avoid stereotypical inferences in decision making process
III. Use decentralization and delegating in decision making process to avoid heuristic biasness
IV. Use lexicographic strategies to overcome satisfice biasness

2.0 Introduction
Human beings tend to act irrational under situations that are quite complex in nature that creates biasness in their decision making process. This causes the decision makers to behave like satisficers because they only look for satisfactory solution instead of an optimal one. Principal of bounded rationality refers to the small ability of the human minds to create and sort out complex problems in comparison to the problems’ size that needs objective rational behavior to fit in the real world...
