Executive eBriefings

SDG's Executive eBriefings are one-hour online webconferences designed to help senior executives maneuver in today's environment. There is no charge to participate.

 

Why Decisions Go Bad

Why is it that many of our decisions — decisions we thought at the time to be rational, sensible, and prudent — seem to turn out so wrong?

Why Decisions Go Bad: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Were they bad decisions in the first place, made without the right information, understanding, or expectations? Or were they really good decisions that over time and unforeseen circumstances turned out poorly? And can we, in the future, make choices that will achieve the results we expect?

Our speakers are world-leading experts in the art and science of decision-making, with a deep understanding of why people make poor choices and how to improve the odds.

This free web conference was hosted by the Stanford Center for Professional Development in partnership with Strategic Decisions Group.
