Managers need to be able to identify optimal solutions to problems based on weighing up the advantages and disadvantages of alternative approaches.  This requires the ability to analyze information, make connections, and look beyond the obvious. This workshop will enhance your ability to analyze and synthesize a diverse range of data and information in order to support sound decision making through fully understanding issues, identifying options to remedy issues, and selecting the most appropriate action based on perceived costs and benefits of alternatives.  By the end of this workshop you will be ready to analyze data and information, drawing out key facts and figures to aid decision making.
