Morphology
decision-making + process
The meaning is fully compositional: 'decision-making' literally denotes the act of making a decision (make + decision) and 'process' denotes a sequence of steps. A B1 learner who knows the constituents can readily infer that this refers to the series of steps by which a decision is reached; this construction is common across languages and follows standard noun-compound + noun semantics.
Etymology
Decision-making process paints a simple picture: imagine a recipe or a line of steps where each action helps to 'make' a decision as part of a clear process. That's why it means the series of stages people or a group follow to reach a choice.
