Course overview

Avoid strategic errors in times of uncertainty

Behavioural economics uses important insights from neuropsychology to formulate a more realistic view of economics, business strategy and decision-making – of how people really think and make decisions. And understanding behavioural economics is key to developing more effective approaches to strategising. This Masterclass will improve your strategic thinking by applying neurostrategic principles to enhance thinking, decision-making and strategy.
