Abstract:Real World situations can be faced by qualitative and by quantitative approaches, by perceptions and by measurements, by feelings and by models. In this paper the authors first compare the management of Natural Real World situations and the management of Human Real World situations. Although there are strong similarities, there are also major differences "GOD" is keeping the laws of Nature unchanged and therefore it is not to be included in the models of Physics, while the "MIND" of the Decision-maker has to be taken into account in Operational Research (OR). Decision-making for Human processes requires also taking into account three poles of influence- the Rational, the Subjective and the Ethical one.
