Steps To Making Clearer & More Effective Decisions

In this fast-paced world, one thing is certain: We need sharp critical thinkers who are able to size up a situation, realize the potential where others may not, and seize opportunities through prompt decision making.

We all perform some level of critical thinking in our daily lives, yet most of us don’t really know what it entails or how we do what we do.

This preview offers you a practical introduction to the highly popular AMA seminar, Critical Thinking.

Learn about the RED model of critical thinking and describe the basics of putting it into action using a practical case study.

  • How the RED Model is used to get to a decision point
    1. Recognize assumptions,
    2. Evaluate arguments,
    3. Draw conclusions
  • The importance of separating facts from opinions
  • Three steps you can take to apply critical thinking skills right away

With the increasing prevalence of virtual teams that span the globe, multicultural audiences are becoming more common.

Meeting leaders must be poised to meet the unique needs of these groups. One of the key roles of any meeting facilitator is to create a safe environment where all participants feel valued and included.

When the meeting includes participants representing a variety of different cultures and backgrounds, this can be somewhat challenging.

This webinar will not review technology platforms to support virtual meetings but will provide specific facilitation techniques that are effective and applicable in a variety of meeting situations.

If you’re leading a multicultural team, these best practices will improve your effectiveness during your next meeting.
