When the stuff hits the fan, a capable leader must possess the ability to make critical decisions under pressure. This is even more crucial when the information they need is often incomplete, questionable, or completely absent. In this session we will explore the use of a game-based, simulated experience for improving leaders' decision-making skills under pressure. Participants will have an opportunity to practice their own skills and see just how well they do when presented with challenging circumstances, time pressure, multiple demands on their time, and crucial decisions to be made.
