OVERVIEW:
Our lives are judged by the cumulative results of the decisions we make. Decisions are choices. Choices have consequences. Too often the pros and cons of each choice are not weighed.
Effective problem solving requires effective decision making. Sometimes you make the right decision. Sometimes you have to make the decision right. This course was built for participants to apply more discipline to make the right decision the first time around as “you never get a second chance to do it right the first time.”
While the focus of this workshop is on organizational problems, we have heard from past participants that what they learned had application to improving decision making in their personal life too. There is something for all to learn in this workshop.
