what DECIDE BETTER ® participants have gained
This definitely made me think a lot more surrounding some important decisions I am about to make.
I learned when and how we put the theory to practice. I feel great, and I know what I need to improve now.
I loved how interactive it was while also being very informative! I feel much better prepared after the seminar.
I feel good! I like knowing people around me are also facing hard decisions, and that I have teachers like you to help out!
I liked the hands-on decision-making examples that showed the software. I feel very good about being able to apply what I learned today.
The highlight was going into the empathy of decision science. I feel good and more confident in where I’m at in my decision-making.
The best part is using the tools to apply to a real decision instead of talking about it in theory. This is a very well done presentation and extremely helpful for students or really anybody.
Using the simulator to help me choose the city I might relocate to for my full-time job was huge. It was nice to see that we can both be successful in business while simultaneously involving ethics and empathy.
Using experiences or decisions from our own lives. Instruct everyone to go through the program and see how it works! I think I’ve gained a good understanding and will be able to apply them to most of my upcoming decisions.
I feel very good about my ability to apply these concepts although it will definitely take practice and mindfulness to master the application of these concepts.

"I really enjoyed the casework and personalized approach to discussing issues that apply to us. You provided us with very applicable examples that showed how we can use many of the technologies that we’re learning about. I feel much better about my decision-making in the future. It’s nice to have an analytical source to help make decisions and add more reasoning."
