Course overview

Is your decision-making up to scratch?

Sound decisions are critical for business success in today’s increasingly dynamic, fast-paced world. Decision-making impacts everything from managing risk to achieving strategic objectives, and the ability to think both strategically and creatively is expected of all proactive management. Personal insight into your biases and an understanding of decision-making models is thus crucial for honing decision-making expertise.

What will you do better after the course

Understand the various methods for improving your decision-making skills and follow a process to introduce more creativity into your life. You’ll be able to approach problem-solving from both strategic and out-of-the-box perspectives. Mitigation of decision bias will become second nature, and you will learn when to trust your intuition in solving a problem.
