Analysis paralysis and extinct by instinct are related to the application of the over- and underuse of formal analysis arising out of both the situation’s like excessive analysis and insufficient analysis respectively. On subject perspective, paralysis by analysis would be coupled mostly with individuals who are unsurprisingly drawn to figures, while other one extinction by instinct would relate to impulsive corporate team with instinctive cognitive styles. In organisation, sources responsible to make these extremes likely to happen are frequently structural, simply exhorting corporate to be analytical is unlikely to solve the problem. Consideration must be given to deeper structural and cultural issues. Moreover, the apparent solution to one problem may lead the corporate to the opposite one in nature in which a well-adjusted & efficient decision making is a complex balancing act that requires frequent judgement and repositioning. In the decision-making process, corporate should have a behaviour of pacing an acceptable edge between an unnatural fascination with figures, examines and information leading to ‘’paralysis by analysis’’ and ill-conceived, chance decisions paving their way to ‘’extinction by instinct’’. The systematic decision making through careful study on issues can help organizations make better decisions rather than a wishful thinking.
