DAI - The Decision Analysis Initiative
Visit our dedicated web site The Decision Analysis Initiative for further details.
Managing uncertainty
The major activity of our 2010-2015 Programme is the the Decision Analysis Initiative This provides practical approach to the dissemination of information on applied decision analysis through online demonstrations of useful decision analysis systems for managing risk and uncertainty. This approach, based upon proven and demonstrable techniques, accompanied by an assessment of benefits, provides a proactive and engaging way of disseminating useful information for managers on how to improve the performance of business, organizational and governmental operations.
An extension system1 for everyone...
This Initiative is an extension activity serving all segments of society and economic sectors, including governance. The basic philosophy is that in order to change perceptions and management behaviour it is necessary to demonstrate what is possible. The demonstration effect is a powerful mechanism for advancing the status of a confident understanding of what is possible. As a result of this experience managers can begin to take steps to enhance the effectiveness of social, economic, financial and policy decision-making. The reduction of risks in decision-making is reflected in a quantitative growth in economic wellbeing as a direct result of a more effective use of resources.

With respect to the financial crisis:
"There is little doubt that the financial crisis emerging during 2007-2009 was a combined and direct result of inadequate attention to appropriate decision analysis in the realms of commercial financial risk assessment at the corporate level. There was also insufficient attention given to the identification of appropriate economic policy options at the national and international levels. It is clear that there is an urgent need for better decision analysis at the micro and macroeconomics levels."
