Book description
Every day, people make decisions and solve problems in both their business and personal lives. For some people, working through problems and making decisions is easy—their natural abilities allow them to make sound, fast, and good decisions—these are your natural leaders. For many other people though, when faced with having to make a decision, they become paralyzed and impotent, lose perspective and implode. Often, these are the people perceived as ineffective managers and leaders. But problem solving and decision making is not just an innate ability—it can also be a learned art. This hands-on new title by renowned training author Robert Vaughn, offers all the materials needed to train others in the art of making effective and appropriate decisions
