Group Decision Making: How groups can overcome the influences of group member biases and social dynamics

In English we have a saying "two heads are better than one." In some cases this is true. It also extends to more than just two heads. In other cases, involving others in decisions can be disastrous. History is full of examples. Social psychology and cognitive neuroscience have informed us that we as individuals suffer from cognitive biases and that when we are a part of a group, we don't always display wisdom.

In Linda's research and in her work with teams, she brings both science and experience to this presentation to provide useful tips and processes to help you make better decisions.

At this difficult time, we need to be the best decision makers we can be, both as individuals and in groups. This is a hopeful, science-based, realistic workshop that will provide enough information and tactics so you are sure to find one or two useful tips to try on Monday morning.
