NO Coin Flips Allowed: Decision-Making in Crisis

Decision-making: You do it every day, but that doesn’t make it any easier. It’s still the most important thing you do. And it’s especially difficult in a personal or professional crisis. This course explores real case studies of difficult decisions –and the tools and insights that made the difference…and that you can use.

Greg Conderacci, who teaches this course, is no stranger to risk. He has managed to survive several high-risk situations, including mergers, acquisitions, reorganizations, layoffs and rapid growth periods in both for-profit and non-profit organizations. He’s climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, ridden a bicycle across the country (twice) and wriggled out of a few tight spots. A former reporter for The Wall Street Journal, he has not only covered high-level decision-makers, he has successfully made career- and life-changing decisions many times. He is a sought-after adviser for personal and corporate decision-making. Greg is a BLI Senior Fellow, consultant, and faculty member at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
