Structured decision work under time pressure: making measurable the balance between gathering information and acting.
The problem solving and decision making programme works on when teams stop gathering information and act. The two most common errors in corporate decisions are opposites of each other: waiting when there is enough data, and deciding when there is none. Both come from the same root cause — the cost of reversing the decision was never calculated.
Teams are given scenarios built on information that is not supplied in full. Additional information can be requested, but every request comes out of the clock. The reflex to "look into it a bit more" therefore stops being an abstract preference and acquires a measurable price. At the end of each round teams compare their decisions, the assumptions behind them and the information budget they spent.
After a result is revealed, people reconstruct their reasoning retrospectively; the feeling of having known all along blocks learning. Writing the reasoning beforehand makes that impossible. This is also the habit participants most often carry away from the programme: recording critical decisions in a single paragraph at the moment they are taken.
Where the group spans markets, the off-the-shelf scenarios are chosen to be sector-specific rather than market-specific, so that no participant has a local advantage. In the bespoke version, real decision situations are anonymised and turned into scenarios in a preparation conversation with HR or the relevant function; that option requires roughly two weeks of preparation and is worth it when the team already has a decision pattern it wants to examine.
Project, operations and product teams, and structures where decision authority is distributed. In structures where decisions are concentrated in one person and the team only executes, the effect is limited; the leadership programme is a better starting point there.
In large-scale corporate events, occupational health and safety (OHS), crowd dynamics, and perimeter security are managed turn-key. Site ground assessments, emergency egress routes, and stable power infrastructure are audited by veteran event directors. Throughout the gathering, dedicated ambulances, certified first-aid medical teams, and event safety marshals remain stationed on site.
From intimate 50-person department retreats to 1,000+ employee company festivals, event flows follow precise minute-by-minute schedules. While athletic colleagues compete in high-energy sports challenges, employees seeking relaxation enjoy live music, lawn games, and wellness stations—fostering 100% company-wide engagement.

There are two options. Ready-made scenarios are chosen by sector and applied directly. In the bespoke version, a preparation conversation is held with HR or the relevant function and real decision situations are anonymised into scenarios; that option requires roughly two weeks of preparation.
The full four-round format is six to seven hours. The shortened half-day format runs the first three rounds with the decision journal compressed into the close. Because round four has the highest effect, a full day is recommended where possible.
No. The scenarios require reasoning rather than calculation; no spreadsheet, formula or statistical knowledge is expected. Groups drawn from mixed departments generally work more productively because assumptions are questioned from different angles.
Most have no single correct answer; the assessment looks at process rather than outcome. Even where a result is revealed, the aim is not to measure who knew but to show the relationship between reasoning and outcome.
Teams are 5 to 8 people. In larger teams more participants stay silent and the discussion within a round does not deepen. With 50 participants, seven or eight teams work in parallel.
