Better Decisions, Better Lives
Empowering Teens Through Decision Skills

Replay Webcast Now

In this Executive eBriefing, SDG takes a break from our usual corporate shareholder value focus to look at the decision-makers of the future. Good decision-making is an essential life skill, but most people only acquire it through a process of trial and error - if at all. Representatives of the Decision Education Foundation, a non-profit organization, present an informative and entertaining look at how most teens think about decisions and how the DEF is working to equip teens with powerful decision-making skills that will enable them to better shape their futures.

Since 2000, SDG has incubated and supported the Decision Education Foundation, which works with both gifted and at-risk teens in pursuit of its mission: "Better Decisions, Better Lives." To learn more about the Decision Education Foundation, visit the organization's website.
