Behavioral Challenges in Decision Making

We will demonstrate many of these phenomena firsthand through individual and class exercises. Topics will include:

• Biases in perception
• Fallacies in reasoning
• Motivational biases
• Personality differences
• Group dynamics

We will offer preventive measures and techniques that can help decision-makers avoid potential traps and pitfalls, improve individual decisions, and enrich group and organizational decisions.

Those who participate in strategic decision-making will find this program an excellent introduction to the decision-making problems and pitfalls inherent to human nature.
