Effectuation!  
Managing under uncertainty.

Lab with Susanne Neunes

Do you want to make decisions quickly, even when circumstances are constantly changing? Do you want to remain capable of acting even when resources are limited and goals are unclear? Then you should get to know Effectuation.

Effectuation is a tried-and-tested decision-making and action logic based on the experience of successful entrepreneurs. It is perfect for acting effectively in dynamic and unpredictable situations.

In this Effectuation Lab, we offer you fresh and effective ideas that will help you to take action despite an uncertain future.
