About Decision-Making Assistance

Decision-Making Assistance is a set of services aimed at companies and individuals with the aim of improving their decision-making capacity. It helps to make better and more informed choices. Decision-Making Assistance expands the capacity for observation, develops reflective thinking, and helps to make more effective choices, without in any way intervening on the decisions themselves and on the freedom of those who make them. Decision-Making Assistance uses skills, methodologies, techniques and IT tools to guarantee the highest quality in the related services.

Why Decision-Making Assistance

Companies do not manage decision-making processes in an organized manner, and this inevitably leads to errors, inefficiencies, and waste of resources, and in the most serious cases even bankruptcy.
Furthermore, decisions have an impact on the internal and external image of the company and on the lives of workers.
Finally, company productivity can be undermined by conflictual work environments that do not motivate people.
Companies that do not optimize their internal decision-making processes lose efficiency, on average for a value equal to at least 10% of turnover.
Companies that do not optimize workers’ decision-making processes can lose up to 40% of productivity.
