BUS 455 - Decision Making


3 hours
Businesses rely on decisions made at all levels of the organization to advance their missions. What does the past 30 years of research tell us about personal and organizational decision-making? Why do organizations perform so poorly at making good decisions? What do teenagers and organizations have in common regarding decision-making? This course investigates the behaviors that subvert effective decision-making (including how to correct them) and the common mental errors that influence decision-making. Through what-if situations and case studies, students learn a proven, process-driven decision-making method applicable to personal and professional decisions. CS
