Introduction
Making decisions at work isn’t always straightforward. There’s pressure, uncertainty, and often too much or too little information. This course offers structured approaches and practical tools to help you think more clearly when faced with business choices. You’ll explore different models for analyzing situations, weighing risks, and evaluating outcomes. The goal is to support more consistent, informed decisions, whether in daily tasks or longer-term planning. It’s not about getting every decision right, but about having a better process for making them.
