Decision-making Acumen: Critical Thinking
Presenters : Charmaine Nadasan , Thirusha Nadasan
Overview
We often hear the expression 'practice makes perfect', but what if we make poor decisions and keep on doing so? Does that make us experts at poor decision-making?
Making decisions is an important part of life and these decisions determine the quality of our lives, the quality of the lives of those that depend on us, as well as the success of our businesses. Good decision-making requires us to be aware of our own thought processes. This is known as metacognition. In this webinar we firstly unpack the theory behind critical thinking before presenting its practical everyday application.
