Decision Coaches

Alvin Toffler once said, "it's surprising how often a smart group of people make dumb decisions." Organizations with the best of intentions, create cross-functional teams to collaborate on difficult issues. But in reality true collaboration in a group environment is hard. Decision Coaches has perfected a modeling and simulation technique that enables cross-functional teams to produce actionable unbiased findings that dramatically increase the probability of success. Our method promotes and embraces debate with the ability to synthesize the seemingly conflicting opinions into actionable results such as:  Northrop Grumman & Boeing – on a $6B program, this sub & prime realized they had a higher probability of a win if they switched sub/prime roles. They did so and won.  US Steel - the executives were evenly split over whether to buy an available mill. They chose to pass and two years later the mill was still on the market at one fifth the price.  IBM – during IBM’s turnaround in the 1990’s our approach enabled product development teams to produce market leading products, while reducing the number of failed products by almost 100%  In support of government contracting win strategy efforts our customer’s win 80% of the time resulting in over $45B in won contracts. As W. Edwards Deming once said, “Without data you are just another person with an opinion.” Our models and facilitation capture the team’s collective opinions and convert it into priorities, probabilities, and insightful visuals. We have proven that teams can produce stellar results in support of high stakes decisions from contract win strategies, market/product portfolio decisions, and new product definition among others.
