decision-making

Join us as we dive into decision making to identify and share the most effective and usable decision-making techniques.

Highly effective but overly complex processes will be omitted. The sessions are intended for immediate use by a wide range of professionals. While these sessions will build on each other, they can nevertheless be experienced as individual sessions, and will not necessitate attendance at all four. However, for maximum benefit participants should attend all.

Topics
