Decision Making

Catalog description

This course takes a different approach to decision making than is taken in courses in the various functional areas of management. The focus in this course is on how decisions are made as opposed to how they should be made. Topics include the heuristics (rules-of-thumb) that humans employ in decision making, the biases caused by these rules-of-thumb and the concept of group think (a hazard to effective decision making in groups). Prerequisite: MNGT 300.(F)
