Judgment interpretation brings data into context while strategic reasoning propels execution. It is safe to say that in modern data-centric organizations, strategic management effectiveness relies on sound judgment gleaned from data reasoning. Traditional inventories do not consider the nuanced competencies within data driven roles. Here, we present the Judgment Inventory for Data driven Management (JIDM), a framework created to evaluate managerial judgment on the axes of data interpretation, risk analysis, and confidence in decisions made. Real-world decisions in professional contexts were used for mapping and validating the JIDM with the corresponding psychometric evaluations. Responses from professionals in various sectors provided both quantitative and qualitative data. Through collecting quantitative data from JIDM mapped assessments, analyzing reliability with Cronbach's Alpha, and performing factor analysis, internal consistency and predictive strength were confirmed. Operational setting outcomes showed JIDM scores and decision-making skill correlated. In adding to the operational outcomes, the study also explores system design and integration, analytical skill for system diagnostics, and professional skill set for change management as primary hurdles in the practical use of such systems. JIDM can now be used in organizational diagnostics, strategic leadership, and in talent development by correlating psychological assessment frameworks with strategy driven data.
