Strategic leadership requires different skills and perspectives than those required by day-to-day operational leadership. Organizations need leaders who can set a strategic direction and implement it, both of which require us to make many decisions. However, research in cognitive sciences and in behavioral economics has shown that we tend to commit systematic, predictable mistakes when making such decisions.
Getting the decisions right is only part of the challenge, leaders also need to disentangle the decision process from decision making and implementation. Leaders are responsible for turning two dials and if they get the balance right they have growth, if they get it wrong, they have chaos and frustration. Where are you and your teams?
- > Identify heuristics and biases and describe how they affect our decision-making.
- > Overcome biases by designing an appropriate decision making process, relying on the strength of the collective.
- > Find a balance in the intervention of everyone in the decision making process to create value and avoid chaos and frustration

Assessment methods
Prior to the session, participants prepare an analysis of their own decision-making process and a presentation of a future difficult decision.
The work on this future decision, and the action plan that will follow at the end of the training, will allow to evaluate the achievement of the objectives for the participant.
Throughout the program, several mini-cases as well as a full case (on learning the lessons of the past) are coverd. In each case the participants are shown how their initial answers/solutions to the cases could be improved by applying the concepts to the case, and can see their progress/learning in the improved approach in the following cases.
Final assessment carried out by the trainer.
