Problem Solving & Decision-Making for Managers

Concept

Every day you are confronted with situations that require you to take decisions and challenge your ability to reach sound judgements. Every day you take hundreds of decisions in passing and without thinking. This usually intuitive approach reaches its limits when decisions of major importance have to be taken with a high degree of complexity and risk, or under great time pressure.

But how do people behave under massive pressure to reach a decision? How do larger teams and organisations react? How can executives take sound decisions, even in time-critical and complex situations and how can they minimise risk? When are prompt decisions required and when does thoroughness come before speed?

Only the correct assessment of a situation or a set of facts, the generation of meaningful alternatives and the willingness to take logical decisions can form a basis for result-oriented action. Ultimately, it is decisions that move enterprises, safeguard jobs and advance your own career. So training and honing your own ability to make sound judgements and your own decision behaviour is of paramount importance.
We will show you how to do this.
