What to do? What to do? What to do? I am pulling my hair out … I don’t know how to choose! The first option is so appealing, it looks like it would suit me perfectly. But the third option, it calls to me in a way the first doesn’t - I want it! The second option is the rational choice, for sure - it does make sense. Hmmmm ….
In this workshop, we will learn tools and strategies to help us make conscientious and confident decisions.
Overview
Section 1: Introduction to Decision Making:
How many decisions do you make a day? Out of those decisions, how many are choices you have actively thought through?
We will begin the session by exploring the concept of Decision Making; specifically focusing on the balance of conscious and subconscious decisions.
What is it & Why is it important?
Satisficer and Maximiser
Decision Making Influences
Systems 1 & 2 (Habits, Heuristics & Bias)
Section 2: Decision-Making Traps
Chocolate! Ooooh, look at the sweet, delicious, perfect piece of chocolate. My mouth is watering - I need it in my belly!
Our life is riddled with decision making traps; psychological shortcuts that subconsciously compel us to select a specific path. We will unpack these, discussing the pitfalls and merits - a selection of traps include:
Emotions
Echo Chamber
Anchoring
Sunk Cost
Section 3: Active Decision-Making
What broomstick should I buy? A Cleansweep 7, Nimbus 2000, a Firebolt, or the new Windsprint?
In the final portion of the workshop, we will cover tools for active decision making. Examining methods for prioritizing our options and making decisions for our chaotically changing world.
