Product Information

Every important business decision involves uncertainty. This session explores how strategy and risk work together when outcomes are unknown. Delegates will learn how to think about risk in a structured way, without relying on guesswork or fear. The session explains how uncertainty affects forecasts, budgets, and long-term plans, and how professionals can help decision-makers navigate these challenges. Designed for professionals involved in planning, advisory work, or senior discussions, this session focuses on judgement, reasoning, and realistic assessment. By the end of the session, delegates will feel more confident contributing to strategic discussions and supporting decisions where certainty is impossible.
