Replay Webcast Now

The concept of "Decision Rights" is used increasingly in organizations to clarify questions of power and authority in decision-making. Economists, the legal community, and organizational behaviorists have each evolved a perspective on this topic, but taken alone any one of these can miss important attributes of good decision-making.

Our speakers discuss the growing interest in decision rights, explain why a single perspective is bound to fail, and provide examples that showcase a better way.
