Course Overview

This course is designed to provide supervisors, managers, and team leaders with comprehensive skills and knowledge to make effective decisions in various situations. Participants will gain an understanding of the three types of decisions: routine, non-routine, and crisis decisions, and establish the characteristics of an effective decision-making process. The course emphasises the importance of clarity of objectives, gathering relevant information, considering alternatives, involving the right stakeholders, assessing risks, making informed decisions, and reviewing outcomes.

Participants will explore different decision-making tools and learn how they integrate with critical thinking techniques. The course covers specific decision-making tools such as the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) and the Six Step Decision Making Process.
