In an increasingly complex business landscape, the ability to approach challenges with a structured, analytical mindset is more important than ever. This course brings together key disciplines—critical thinking, systems thinking, data analysis, and business problem-solving—to develop robust decision-making skills that can be applied to real-world scenarios.

Over the span of 20 days, participants will explore a variety of theoretical concepts and practical techniques. The structure of the program ensures that each course builds upon the other, offering a progressive learning experience. Through engaging workshops, case studies, and group discussions, participants will gain insights into problem-solving strategies, systems analysis, and how data can be harnessed to guide decisions in both short-term and long-term business planning.

The courses within the diploma include Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving, which covers techniques for identifying problems, framing questions, and evaluating potential solutions. Systems Thinking teaches participants how to view issues holistically, understanding how different components of a system interact and impact each other. Data-Driven Decision-Making focuses on using quantitative and qualitative data to inform decisions, while Analytical Thinking for Business Success integrates the previous topics into a cohesive approach to business leadership.

As part of the program, participants will also prepare a final thesis (4,500-5,000 words) over a 5-day period, allowing them to apply the concepts they have learned to a real-world business issue. The thesis will require participants to demonstrate their ability to synthesize their knowledge, conduct deep analysis, and present actionable insights in a structured format.
