The disruptive pandemic conditions put into sharp relief what senior executives have struggled with for years: Too many business decisions largely assume the status quo and do not properly reflect reality, especially amid uncertainty and change.

For most, decision-making complexity has increased, but upstream and downstream considerations remain poorly addressed. Decisions do not factor in enough relevant variables, adequately consider the future effects, or position the organization to capture opportunities and mitigate risks.

Decisions today must become connected, contextual and continuous by creating a truly symbiotic relationship between humans and machines to generate the optimal action.

Progressive organizations already complement the best of human decision-making capabilities with the power of data and analytics and artificial intelligence.

In this webinar Ivar Berntz (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst;  looks at how the quality of the decisions made by data-driven organizations gives them a competitive edge that significantly transforms them and your industry.

Discussion Topics:

• Turn decision making into your competitive advantage
• Combine the best of human decision-making capabilities with the power of machines
• Find out how better decision making transforms manufacturing

Effective decision making keeps getting more difficult.

In a recent Gartner survey, 65% of respondents said the decisions they make are more complex than just two years ago, and 53% said they face more pressure to explain or justify their decisions.

Your organization must bring together an array of increasingly complex techniques to make ever-faster decisions that leverage a maelstrom of data in ecosystems that are in constant motion.

To improve the outcome of your decision models and accommodate uncertainty factors, organizations combine artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for maximum flexibility and business differentiation.

Decision intelligence promotes the sustainability of cross-organizational decisions by building models that use principles aimed at enhancing their traceability, replicability, relevance and trustworthiness.

In this webinar Pieter J. den Hamer (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst will help you instill better decision intelligence so your organization can make more impactful data-driven decisions.

Discussion Topics:

• Learn the elements that increase the complexity of decision ecosystems
• Explore how decision techniques are combined to address complex decisions
• Discover how decision modeling addresses the new decision-making challenges

After studying hundreds of successful and failed projects ranging from small individual ones, Antonio Nieto-Rodriquez, (LinkedIn profile)  has developed a simple tool – the Project Canvas – that can be applied by any individual, team, organization or country.

The Project Canvas (inspired & validated by Alex Osterwalder and Yves Pigneur, creators of the Business Model Canvas) covers the basic principles and fundamentals of projects that everyone should know, is practical and easy to implement. It  will assist you in leading projects more successfully.

Project management methods have tended to be too complex to be easily understood and applied by non-experts. The pivotal assumption has been that documenting every aspect of a project in detail will provide a high level of control of the planned activities during the implementation of the project.

Many project managers end up producing massive numbers of documents and swathes of paperwork, leading to an overall feeling that the role was primarily administrative.

In contrast, widely used management disciplines are often linked to a few simple frameworks that can be easily understood, and applied, not only by managers but also by the majority of individuals. Porter’s Five Forces and value chain analysis help to make strategy a key area for every organization to apply.

In this webinar Antonio will explore the need for simplification of project management methods, and describe all the elements of the Project Canvas with practical examples.

The key learning objectives are:

• Listen why we need to reinvent project management
• Learn all the dimensions and elements of the Project Canvas
• Understand how to put the Project Canvas in practice to increase the buy-in of your shareholders
