Decisions impact everything from managing risk to a company’s ability to achieve its strategic objectives. The capacity to think strategically and creatively is now an expectation of all proactive management. Sound decisions are critical for business success in today’s increasingly dynamic, fast-paced world. 

Executives must combine “out of the box” thinking with strategic insight and risk reduction. Insight into one’s biases and understanding of decision-making models is essential for honing one’s decision-making expertise. 

Most people take these skills for granted and forget to evaluate and improve their competencies. While they have always been crucial, a more complex future will necessitate increased decision-making and problem-solving effectiveness.  

The class has been designed to achieve impact through multiple activities, including videos, readings, reflection activities, decision exercises, and problem-solving approaches.
