Critical Thinking for Decision Making

About This Course

The CREO Critical Thinking for Decision Making Course supports professionals in developing a structured approach to analysing problems and making well-reasoned decisions. The course focuses on critical thinking as an applied workplace skill—helping learners slow down automatic reactions, challenge assumptions, and evaluate information objectively before choosing a course of action. Participants explore practical tools for defining problems, identifying relevant evidence, and examining different perspectives. The course also addresses common cognitive biases and reasoning errors that can affect judgment, especially under pressure or uncertainty. Through real-world scenarios and applied exercises, learners practise building clear arguments, testing options against criteria, and communicating decisions with rationale. By emphasising systematic thinking and reflective questioning, the course enables learners to approach complex situations with greater clarity, consistency, and confidence. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Define and frame problems using a structured approach - Identify assumptions, biases, and gaps in reasoning - Analyze information and viewpoints to evaluate options - Apply decision criteria to compare alternatives - Justify decisions using clear and evidence-based reasoning Prerequisites: - No prior training in critical thinking or logic is required. The course is suitable for professionals and emerging leaders who want to improve decision-making in workplace contexts.
