How to Make Better Business Decisions

A half-day, in-house company seminar

Overview
Learn how to make smarter business decisions. Research has shown that more than 50 percent of business decisions fail outright, or aren't fully implemented. Because of this, people are now realizing the severe limitations in the traditional or logical decision-making model many of us have been taught to use. In this session we introduce you to a new expanded model which explains how decision-making really happens - whether they be transactional decisions; impulsive decisions, intuitive decisions or carefully-deliberated major decisions.
