What is a Decision Tree Maker?
How to Make a Decision Using Creately's Decision Tree Maker
Decision trees can be used as a visual tool that teams can collaborate around to identify and analyze different options and their potential outcomes. With decision trees teams can make informed divisions, identify potential issues, and weigh pros and cons of different options.
1. Define the problem and gather data with our decision tree software
Define the problem and the objectives. Gather team members and stakeholders to discuss the issue in our decision tree maker. Collect the data relevant to the problem from all participants. Share ideas and ensure everyone is on the same page regarding what the decision tree is trying to achieve.
Make use of integrations such as Microsoft Teams in Creately’s free decision tree maker to hold dynamic meetings. Use the whiteboard and sticky notes to jot down ideas and elaborate on the problem.
2. Start creating the decision tree with our online decision tree maker
Drag and drop a rectangle onto the canvas to type the root node or the main problem. You can also opt to use a readily available blank decision tree template to create the decision tree online effortlessly.
3. Brainstorm decision points
Brainstorm the decision points of the tree with your teammates. Consider all ideas and perspectives and identify potential blind spots.
4. Assign branches
Assign branches for each decision point. Use circles to denote nodes that contain possible outcomes. Each node may be connected to multiple circles depending on the number of outcomes.
As the decision tree branches out, use lines to indicate each decision’s impact (or cost) and its possible outcomes. Creately’s decision tree maker features intelligent formatting capabilities that allow you to connect shapes easily.
5. Assign probability or likelihood
Assign the probability or likelihood of each branch being chosen. Use dot voting to gather the input of each team member. Select a shape and access the notes panel on the right to store additional information on possible outcomes. All questions or points on the decision tree should be connected to a chance event. Use triangles at the end of change events to indicate an outcome.
6. Share and fine-tune
Once the decision tree is complete inside the desicion tree maker, calculate the cost of each outcome and determine the final value. Export the decision tree in JPEG, SVG, PNG, or PDF formats from the decision tree maker or share it with colleagues for real-time feedback collection.
