What you'll learn

Identify what really drives the decision

Separate the assumptions that matter from the ones that add noise but do not change the recommendation.

Stress-test your recommendation

Explore how the decision changes under different assumptions, scenarios, and downside outcomes.

Find the point where the answer changes

Identify the threshold that would make another option preferable and use it to guide what to watch next.

Why this topic matters

Most business decisions are built around a base case that looks more precise than it really is. In this session, you’ll take a decision that appears attractive, vary the assumptions behind it, and see how quickly the answer can change. You’ll leave with a practical way to judge whether a recommendation is robust, understand the downside, and identify the exact condition that would make you change course.
