Intermediate level project
Decision Analysis for a Business or Programme
Take a real decision facing an organisation — opening a branch, changing prices, restructuring stock or scaling a programme — and build the analysis that supports it: drivers, segments, scenarios, a test plan and a recommendation with risks.
Deliverables
- A decision brief stating the question, options and criteria
- Driver, segment and scenario analysis with documented assumptions
- A plan to test or monitor the decision with leading indicators
- A recommendation paper with risks, ethics notes and a presentation
Assessed on
- The analysis answers the decision question directly
- Assumptions are explicit and scenarios cover realistic ranges
- Conclusions distinguish evidence from judgement
- Data is handled ethically and the recommendation is actionable
All levels are taught live by an instructor — online or in person — see registration options.
