What is Bonded Rationality?

Also known as limited rationality, bonded rationality is useful when the future cannot be predicted. Meaning, it is difficult to be completely rational because of future uncertainties, and unrecognizable decision alternatives. In this situation, a manager must settle for bonded rationality, that is, "play it safe." According to management expert Herbert Simon, a manager should pick a course of action that is satisfactory or good enough under the circumstances.
