Learn the essential realities that will excel your organisational decision making ability

Thius subject is offered as a morning, one day of two day seminar, or as week course. 

In this introductory course/seminar  we offer an overview of the current approaches of decision making, as well as the various approaches to supporting decision makers.  We do this from the perspective of a conceptual framework for decision making in all areas of corporate and organisational activities.  We cover the following areas:

1. The various goals of decision making (for procedural, operational, tactical and strategic decision making)
2. The different approaches to decision making and where they are useful
   
3. The responsibilities, risks and rewards of (good) decision making
4. Thinking skills and decision making

It is important to note that we do not adhere to only the rational view of decision making, neither do we focus only on analytical skills for decision making, while we cover both of these.  We engage the subject in its full complexity.  In order to be able to do that, we employ all branches of science, as they all add value from differenbt perspectives. 

Note that we are not affiliated with any academic institution, so the certificate of successful completion does not provide an academic qualification.

While this subject is offered as a one day or two day course as well, it is recommended that you consider doing the one week course to get insight into the full spectrum of this very important subject.  Download our current pricelist for more information.
