Effective Decision Making
ARL/OLMS Online Lyceum Course
September 13-24, 2004
http://www.arl.org/training/decision.html
$200 ARL members/$250 nonmembers


Much of our daily work involves making decisions--some big, some less 
critical. We often rely on strategies that seem to have worked for us in 
the past. But how do we really know when our decisions are effective? 
How do we determine which tools and processes will help us think, 
choose, and plan?

The Association of Research Libraries is pleased to offer the Online 
Lyceum course "Effective Decision Making" to help address these 
questions. Interaction with an experienced course facilitator through 
the submission of course assignments and via informal e-mail exchange 
provide a learning opportunity to engage in a step-by-step model process 
that will introduce you to a disciplined and structured approach to 
effective decision making.

In this course you will learn to:

* build criteria;
* develop problem statements or decision frames;
* recognize and select appropriate decision styles; and
* use interpersonal skills to gain support from others.

Target Audience
The course is designed for people who must make decisions affecting all 
levels of organizational performance. If you manage a project, supervise 
a department, administer a program, or lead a group, you will find 
valuable information here.

Instructor
Kathryn Deiss, Program Director for Education and Training, Chicago 
Library System
