Effective decision-making is the cornerstone of most business activities.

In this age of rapid change, companies of all sizes are interested in developing the decision-making skills of their leaders and line staff, enabling them to find innovators from their various people resources. A big challenge in that effort is that many staff have not received any formal development in this area, leaving companies searching for under-developed skill areas.

By the end of this course, learners will have developed a valuable skill set from which they’ll understand the main obstacles to effective decision-making and the decision-making process. They’ll also learn about a range of techniques and they will understand the benefits of a decision-making process.

Course Overview

There are 4 key sections in this training course.

1. Decision-making skills
Successful decision-making is a business-critical skill.

And, although the theories behind decision-making skills are simple it takes experience, knowledge, and practice to scale these skills successfully.

Gone are the days when decision-making skills were just learned on the job. Nowadays, companies want these must-have skills engrained across the organization and this requires effective training initiatives.

That is why this introductory section will:

  • Explore the advantages of better decision-making skills.
  • Highlight that ownership for a decision must be with those who need to implement the solutions.
  • Demonstrate the need to better utilize resources, especially knowledge-based resources.

2. The main types of decisions
Many professionals have difficulty in understanding the different types of decisions that may need to be taken in the workplace. As a result, this means that not every decision may be taken successfully. We have learned that effective decision-making can in reality only happen when learners understand the different types of decision-making that can exist and when they understand the challenges that can arise in terms of making decisions.

This section of the training tackles these key points.

3. The decision-making process
The course contains targeted content and is designed to assist any employee or individual who frequently needs to make decisions that will impact their team members and/or the organization as a whole.

In this section, the training will delve into a tried and tested six-step decision-making process.
simple 6 step process:

  1. Understand the underlying decision problem.
  2. Identify ways to eliminate or reduce critical uncertainties.
  3. Identify future decisions linked to the primary decision.
  4. Understand the complexity of the relationships.
  5. Decide what to do in the fundamental decision.

And, this training will:

  • Focus on the practical steps on improving decision-making skills.
  • Highlight the correct set of skills to overcome the challenges normally impacting on effective decision-making skills.

  • Explore a range of effective decisions making techniques.
  • Discuss the PMI technique and the use of decision trees and fault trees.
  • Share the importance of disconfirming questions.

  2. Decision trees.

  4. Disconfirming questions.
  5. Prospective hindsight.
  6. Body frame.

5. Uncertainty and risk
The very idea that individuals can be taught about uncertainty and risk can be challenging for some people. However, effective decision-making skills necessitate an ability to better manage risk. This section explores this key area.

6. Decision-making techniques (Part 2)
The final section of the training explores a series of techniques that will help course participants to make better decisions (e.g., linked decisions, trade-offs, and the even-swap method).
