Problem Solving and Decision Making Training

We have all seen reports related to problem situations or recommendations related to a decision that needs to be implemented where nothing is done in spite of the recommendations being solid. We have also seen solutions fall apart because the consensus for support has dissipated.

This course is designed for people who want to learn how to make good decisions and how to get them implemented. From preparing to solve a problem or take a decision, you will learn when to do it on your own and when you should involve others. You will learn the steps to effective decision making and problem solving and you will have an opportunity to practice them. This 2 day workshop is focused on getting you the tools, techniques, and work aids to make your solutions better and more productive.
