Core Sessions: HIGH-IMPACT DECISION-MAKING

DECISION-MAKING IN NEGOTIATIONS

Live-online (synchronous sessions)
Four two-hour sessions held over two weeks

In these sessions, you’ll gain effective negotiation techniques—harnessing the power of social capital—to make impactful decisions during the deal-making process to drive organizational results. You’ll discover your unique negotiation style, learn how different strategic choices impact outcomes, and explore cross-cultural negotiation practices. You’ll also gain confidence at the bargaining table that can only be achieved through practice by participating in live, gamified negotiation exercises with peers.

CUSTOMER
DECISION MAKING

Live-online (synchronous sessions)

Here, you’ll gain the tools to create value through an understanding of how customers make purchasing decisions—using marketing-applied principles of behavioral economics. You’ll improve your understanding of how customers make product pricing valuation decisions by exploring customer inattention in pricing, price considerations of loss aversion, and creating an ideal environment for purchases through choice architecture and nudging.

APPLIED DECISION-MAKING: MAKING INNOVATION HAPPEN

Capstone session over three days at Booth’s campus in downtown Chicago

The program culminates in a 3-day interactive session that challenges participants to transform their ideas into execution and action. Attendees will gain core skills that correlate with high-impact innovation leadership, explore how entrepreneurs identify and promote breakthrough ideas, gain a toolkit to ‘de-risk’ innovation initiatives, and build momentum and stakeholder support.
