Quality Decision Making – delivered by Diana Ritchie

Decision making is an everyday occurrence in both a personal and professional capacity for small (not very important) and large (extremely important) decision and for short term and long term decision and yet have we stopped to understand how we make decisions. Everyday we witness bad decisions, which have major impact on the economy, on society and on us personally made by politicians, world leaders, organisational leaders and colleagues. As part of our desire to advance and remain relevant (when robots can potentially make better decisions) as humans, understanding the art of decision making is crucial.
