In a fast paced, complex business environment decision making has become increasingly difficult.

We want to make good decisions. We’re told we need to make faster decisions. But often we end up in ‘analysis paralysis’.

Caught between analyzing endless data, including inputs from a vast range of participants, and often trying to please too many masters. It’s no wonder fewer decisions get made. And when they do, they are not the best.

If you are looking for a way to simplify decision making and cut through some of the complexities, then this episode is for you!

Today we’re joined by Dave Martin, author of Mega Thinking: A Simple, Powerful Process to Think Smarter and Make Better Leadership Decisions.

He is the founder of 280 Capital Partners and a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, and has helped top executives and leaders across industries refine their decision-making process using his innovative "MegaCepts" method.

• Dave will be talking about his 4-step method to overcoming analysis paralysis.
• How to distill complex topics into their 10 most essential principles.
• Why sharpening thinking still is critical for effective leadership.

Everyone wants to build a brand. But few people actually know how.

For most, a brand is a logo and a vague mission statement - and little more.

And you can really blame them. Creating a unique brand identity - and articulating it so that others (ideally customers) understand what you stand for - is a lot bigger undertaking than it seems.
