Change and growth inevitably force companies to make critical decisions at unexpected moments. Acting under pressure, many organizations make decisions that fall short, that operate in a frustrating cycle of trial and error, that can waste millions of dollars. How should organizations reach decisions that successfully impact their enterprise? What elements are essential in surfacing the best decision a team can make? Management experts consider the Cuban Missile Crisis one of the most successful decision making processes in history.
