What if I make the wrong decision?


You need to make a decision but you're not sure what the right answer is. Every option has it's downsides and every choice feels like it could go wrong. The longer you sit with it, the heavier it gets because you're responsible for other people now. This episode of Career Espresso is about making decisions when you can't be certain, trusting your judgment when the information is incomplete, and what to do when things don't work out.


What you'll discover


  • Why decision making feels completely different when you're responsible for others
  • The legitimacy doubts women leaders face that make second-guessing worse
  • How to know when you've got enough information to make the call
  • How to explain your reasoning without apologising for the decision
  • What to do when the decision doesn't work out the way you expected


Perfect for women leaders who care about getting decisions right but find themselves stuck in the "I need more information" loop.
