1-Day Critical Thinking and Decision Making Skills Course
Course Overview
This course is created, owned, and trained by its original creator, Mr. Christian Chua. Learn from the original creator.
In everyday situations, the quality of our decisions can lead to highly productive outcomes or jeopardise friendships, client satisfaction, or organisational stability.
This course comprehensively explores the principles underlying critical thinking and decision-making. It equips leaders and individuals with the skills and knowledge needed to enhance the quality of their decisions and responses.
Frequently, individuals confront the challenging choice between adhering strictly to organisational compliance requirements and taking initiative when faced with crucial moments. Throughout this course, learners will gain valuable insights into effectively manoeuvring through the intricate decision-making landscape, enabling them to make sound choices.
This condensed one-day workshop focuses on enhancing critical thinking skills, understanding wisdom, and applying these skills to make better personal and organisational decisions.
Outcomes of this workshop:
- Learners will learn to approach situations rationally, eliminating impulsive or biased behaviours
- Making optimal decisions to achieve the best possible outcomes
- Nurturing a group of bright employees who make good decisions daily
