Decision Making for Supervisors:
From Gut to Strategy

Decision Making for Supervisors: From Gut to Strategy

Supervisors make dozens of decisions every day — under pressure, with incomplete information, and with real consequences for the people they lead. This three-hour webinar gives supervisors a practical toolkit for deciding more clearly and more confidently. Participants will explore eight decision-making frameworks, from how the brain processes fast and slow thinking to structured tools for crisis situations, and learn how to match the right approach to the right situation.

The webinar also addresses the forces that derail even experienced supervisors: groupthink, polarized thinking, and cognitive traps like the sunk cost effect. Through short videos, case examples, and a hands-on practice activity, participants will identify the ten most common decision-making mistakes and leave with a personal checklist they can use the next day..
