Decision Making Under Pressure

Good business decisions are the heart of a successful organization. Decisions made under pressure require a process so the right people are involved and you have confidence in the outcome. Even when we make a rapid decision we want most of our objectives met with as little risk as possible. Deadlines can force us to jump to an alternative without satisfying our objectives. All of this happens because we don't have a process to depend on.

Many decisions are made quickly because time is money and deadlines often rule the day. Even so, we need an approach that gives us confidence in our decisions without extensive analysis. Using the most critical aspects of good decision-making can provide confidence and positive outcomes.

Decision Making Under Pressure teaches participants a seven step approach to decision-making and then shows them how to focus their efforts on the critical pieces of the process: objectives, alternatives and risk. It provides a streamlined approach based on a full understanding of the process. We customize our workshop so that participants understand exactly how the process works in their environment. Cases and examples are unique to your product or process. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to apply the process to a current business decision.

Delivery methods:
  • Instructor lead on-line training
  • One-on-one coaching
  • National / annual associate meeting topics with break out sessions
