Why should you attend?

We know that the most robust decisions come from teams vs. individuals.  Simply because a team of people will more likely bring a fuller appreciation of the situation than any one individual.  At the same time, teams can also make poor decisions based on how effectively they engage each other in productive or unproductive dialogue.  This workshop shows teams and team leaders how to more effectively lead team decision-making so that the “team genius” is allowed to emerge.
