Problem Solving and Decision Making

This workshop is aimed at giving you tools to solve difficult business problems, both technical and nontechnical, and improve the quality of your decision-making. The problem-solving techniques employed here can be applied successfully to a variety of situations, such as product and process improvement, new product development, and strategic and tactical business problems. Methods to address both quantitative and qualitative problems are covered, and development of “buy-in” is given attention. These topics are covered in the workshop:

  • Defining problem-solving and decision making
  • Organizing problem information in specific terms
  • Generating alternatives and tradeoffs
  • Tools for evaluation of alternatives
  • Developing an action plan
  • Understanding the effect of others on decisions, and decisions on others

Held at the University of Delaware Downtown Center, 8th & King Streets in Wilmington.
