This course is designed to enhance the decision-making capabilities of emergency managers, planners, and responders. By exploring key aspects of decision-making, participants will gain practical skills in applying structured decision-making processes, evaluating problem-solving models, and handling ethical dilemmas during emergencies. Through interactive lessons and scenario-based learning, participants will learn how pre-crisis decisions can shape emergency responses, and how to remain effective in crisis situations where time pressure, stress, and group dynamics play critical roles.
