Robust Decisions for Technical Teams
A Two-Day Workshop
Become proficient in
processes and tools that lead to better team decision-making. Decisions made during design and product development processes influence many business-critical
outcomes: product cost and quality, manufacturing methods, and customer
satisfaction, among others. Based on the book 12
Steps for Robust Decisions, the workshop outlines a process for
effective collaboration- a process that maximizes intellectual resources to
craft defensible strategies, and to make best-possible decisions in the face of uncertain, incomplete, and evolving information.
Tailored to your specific industry and job function, the course makes extensive use of, and includes, AccordTMsoftware, the leading decision-support tool for teams. A helpful workbook is also included.
