Workshop Overview

In addition to making rational decisions, one of the key requirements for being an effective leader is influencing others, that is, getting others to take actions for the benefit of the team or the organization even if they don’t want to. This course will provide insights on how you can influence other people without the other person even realizing that you are trying to influence them. You can just tilt the scales to nudge them to make the choice that you want them to make.

The instructor would demonstrate many decision making slippages in class using exercises, tasks, and surveys, and discuss various business contexts in which such slippages occur. The basic principles learned in class would have applications across a wide range of business decision making contexts, including financial decisions, investment decisions, managing employees, planning mergers, selling products, and negotiating with others.

Goals of Workshop

An improved understanding of how you and others tend to make decisions, and how you should make decisions, will greatly increase your effectiveness as future leaders.
