How do you decide?
Making business decisions isn't always easy. This course shows you how to make effective decisions. But it's not like any other course you will ever experience.
When: 22 March 2012
Where: Ashridge Business School, nr London
During the Vietnam War a study into the survival rates of combat officers made some startling revelations.
The way in which different officers made decisions was the critical factor affecting their survival. Decision-making was more important than size, personality type, aggressiveness or equipment.
But there is more to making a decision than assessing the facts.
Think about it...
For instance, why do some people love Jaguars and loathe BMWs, or vice versa? The facts show there is nothing to choose between them.
Effective decision-making has a lot to do with understanding the different parts of us that make up a decision.
Given a choice, why do we prefer one path over another?
Do you really need consultants to do it for you? (Typically they just collect facts.) But you and I know that decision-making isn't just about facts. In fact it often has very little to do with facts.
And if one big decision can involve millions, how do we know that we’re going to get it right?
Here’s one fact to consider. Everyone makes decisions differently.
Our one-day conference is an intensive approach, based on our own practice and advances in neuroscience that help you identify how you make decisions. Once you know how you make decisions it gets a lot easier to make your own decisions with confidence.
WHY ATTEND?
Quite simply you will make better decisions. You will also learn the three components of strategic decision-making that high achievers naturally employ. You will understand the relevance of your purpose to your business strategy, organisation and your decision-making.
You will learn:
- How top performers naturally make better decisions
- How to access your “purpose”
- How your purpose affects your strategic direction
- How you make your successful decisions
- What is missing when your decision-making strategy does not work
- Plus…evidence from my own case studies.
Although some of our methodology is in the public domain, it is unknown to most.
And you get a full money-back guarantee.
If you find you just are not getting any value from the course, come to me during coffee and ask for your money back.
