Managing Decision-Making Workshop

What are the types of decisions? When is each type appropriate to use? What are the drawbacks of each approach? Decision-making is one of the most important things that a leader does – and one of the least understood. Participants in this workshop learn how to define different types of decisions and some of the common assumptions that lead to poor decisions.

Using tools and exercises, participants learn:

  • The five types of decisions
  • The three levels of delegation
  • The role of assumptions – and types of assumptions
  • When consensus is appropriate – and how to achieve it
  • Techniques for making tough decisions
  • Multi-lateral decision-making involving independent entities

Audience:
Leaders, managers, supervisors

Length of workshop:
2-4 hours

Materials provided:
Workbook, password access to online tools

LRI helped us experience a real change in the way that we do planning and resolve problems. It made it possible for us to say exactly what we wanted to say, and for others to hear exactly what we said. Looking back, I wonder why we didn’t do this before.

PHH

We had a difficult challenge facing us in articulating a clear vision for PHH.  LRI did a great job in getting input from all the participants while at the same time keeping us on track.  We accomplished the goal of agreeing on a future direction. I don’t think we would have gotten there without LRI’s help. Thanks again for your facilitation and leadership.

During the summer of 2015 we began a strategic planning process with LRI. This was our first attempt at an encompassing five-year plan. I was amazed by how quickly the consultants at LRI assimilated our culture, processes, and critical priorities. They expertly pushed us through the conversations we needed to have – some of them not easy. I’m happy to report we are extremely pleased with the result. We completed the project on time – and on budget. I highly recommend LRI for future engagements.
