People in companies typically make hundreds of decisions every day; some of them have long-term implications. But big data and smart technology are changing the process of decision-making. This three-day programme will teach you new ways of thinking to keep your decision-making relevant.
This programme, offered by RSM Executive Education, focuses on managerial thinking and reasoning that uses recent developments in big data and artificial intelligence (AI). You will learn decision-making skills that will help you focus on your markets, make strategic progress, and influence consumers. Over three days, we cover best principles for managerial decision-making – thinking about big data and thinking with big data – as well as rational and irrational human behaviour with regard to product information and prices, and the social aspects of decision-making.
The highly interactive lectures are mixed with exercises, role plays, and case studies. Assignments will be conducted in small groups. These study methods will help you apply new knowledge, and address the needs of your organisation straight away.
This programme is designed for experienced managers and consultants from organisations of all sizes and from various functional areas including operations, marketing, innovation and human resources, who are seeking to deepen their executive decision-making skills. An evaluation is part of the selection process.
You should comply with the following requirements if you wish to take part in the Rules for Effective Decision-Making programme:
You have a minimum of 5 years of managerial experience
You have budget responsibility and have financial impact in your organisation
You have responsibility in the strategic decision-making process in your organisation.
Your application will be final once we have informed you on the basis of the intake call that your application has been accepted.
During the Leading with Decision-Driven Analytics Programme you will learn from Dr Bart de Langhe. Occasionally we may substitute other faculty members according to the content of the programme and their availability.
The programme takes place in the Bayle building on the Woudestein Campus of Erasmus University Rotterdam.
