Executive Education – Executive Decision Making

In this program, participants will learn to use the Vroom model for decision making to determine how to maximize their decisions at work.

Participants will receive detailed feedback which allows them to examine their own natural style and determine methods to maximize the benefits of involving their employees in business decisions. Maximizing means choosing the decision-making process that produces the best possible decision alternative with the best chances of effective implementation. Taken into account are the importance of time, decision quality, implementation, and employee development. Register by November 4, 2024.
