Commitment to Action To Decide or Not to Decide…

SDP Free Webinar
21 Aug, 2019 | 8:00 am PT / 11:00 am ET
An SDP Presentation from the BEST of the "London Decision Quality Conference 2018"
Speaker: Ray Riddoch, Managing Director UK, Senior Vice President Europe & Africa, CNOOC International Ltd.

Moderator: Ellen Coopersmith, Founder and President of Decision Frameworks

Abstract:
For the last few years, CNOOC International’s UK business has been developing its Decision Analysis capabilities in order to improve quality of its decisions. The programme includes training of senior leaders on what a quality decision actually is, creating a cadre of local DA practitioners and changing processes to include DA tools.
However, have a good decision process is not enough – if we can’t commit to action and effectively execute the decision then the “best” alternative is nothing more than potential value.
In this presentation, I will talk about a number of examples as well as what as I expect to see as a decision maker. I will also discuss the advantages of having regular dialogue between decision makers and the project team to ensure there is an agreed frame to make sure we are solving the right problem, we consider a range of viable alternatives and ultimately build commitment and a plan for implementation.
