Course Details

One of the key factors for success in any business is our ability to think critically, to solve problems and to make sound decisions in relation to these. However, to do so effectively requires more than just skill and enterprise.

First, we must be able to distinguish between symptoms and problems. We must then be able to exercise the discipline, especially under time or other constraints, to follow a process which will enable us to make the best decision possible to meet the needs posed by the problem or situation facing us.

Objective

The objective of this one-day programme is to assist managers, team leaders and other professionals in developing all the key skills for developing a critical thinking approach for effective problem solving and decision making.
