Creative Decision Making

Course Description

Decision making appears at the top of many lists about workplace skills and competencies that employers value. It makes sense. We make decisions and solve problems several times every day.

Making smart decisions  could be the  difference  between business  profitability  or disaster. Resolving problems with the best solution could be the difference between saving loyal customers or not.

The key to smart decision-making rests with our ability to clearly define the problem, identify innovative options, research  them, and then  craft a  workable  solution.  Having a  process  to  work through these steps can take the anxiety out of problem-solving and make decisions easier. This course explores a wide range of techniques to help you puzzle through situations, learn how to solve both simple and complex problems, discover your creativity, and apply  these techniques  to smart decision making.
