Keys to Effective Decision-Making
Due to the high level of interest in this webinar, we have added a second session at 2 p.m. on 11/14. You can register for the added session at https://www.bigmarker.com/From-Synapses-to-Strategies/Copy-of-Keys-to-Effective-Decision-Making.
We all make hundreds if not thousands of decisions every day. Some are easy; some are excruciatingly difficult. In this webinar, we will explore the characteristics of different types of decisions as well as the critical steps to effective decision-making, including defining the problem (or question or choice), choosing a decision-making process, developing and evaluating alternatives, and the process of deciding. We’ll provide examples of some of the common biases that lead to flawed decision-making, and what to do when none of the alternatives seems appealing. Finally, we will discuss what we know about the role of emotions in decision-making based on neuroscience and behavioral economics research.

I like to describe myself as a "recovering" educator, but the truth is that I am more excited than ever about what neuroscience is uncovering about the brain and how we can use that information to enable each individual to reach his or her cognitive potential. I'm here to share what I've been learning over the last ten years and to continue learning from others in this amazing and fast developing field.
