Course Overview
When decision-making with incomplete information is unclear, people default to protecting their own function. Teams read what their leaders tolerate on incomplete information far more accurately than what their leaders announce. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the organisational leadership discipline under scrutiny. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting decision-making with incomplete information and under-invest in testing it. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of this aspect of organisational leadership and supervised application. Participants who influence incomplete information without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. This programme builds decision-making with incomplete information from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in incomplete information that were visible long before the incident. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the practice within organisational leadership that participants can repeat annually.
