People sometimes need direction from their leaders when they don't know what to do in certain situation. When I am doing something irrational, I will explain to my followers why I am doing it and how it will have positive impacts in order to justify my decision. If my workers still oppose my decision at worker place, I will use my power to force them to follow me.
The way to present information certainly has huge impact on decision making. I remember that when I wanted to purchase a cell phone plan, I faced the choice between AT&T and T-Mobile. I already knew that T-Mobile 's plans were cheaper but it had inferior coverage compared to AT&T. When I checked T-Mobile's website, it said that "We have coverage where you need it". That let me I think that even though T-Mobile's coverage was not as good as AT&T's, I would still get covered where I needed most. So I signed a one-year service agreement with T-Mobile, and the result was that I suffered from dropped calls at home everyday. So it was the way T-Mobile represented it's coverage that caused my unwise decision. If I face the same choice again, I will absolutely choose AT&T as the service provider.
