What You’ll Learn
Being a leader requires not only the ability to make important decisions independently but also the capacity to influence others’ decisions.
In this program, we will use the frameworks of choice architecture to examine the decision-making process. We’ll study the various ways choices are framed—and how this framing can influence decisions. The topics explored will help you become a better decision maker in your professional life and beyond.
Choice architecture—popularized by economist Richard Thaler and legal scholar Cass Sunstein—was originally designed to influence consumer behaviour. But its applications have proven constructive for organizational leaders and managers who need to make and influence important decisions.
Through engaging case studies, discussion, and exercises, you’ll learn when and where flawed thinking can occur, how you can intervene, and how you can ultimately make and influence smarter decisions for your organization.
You will uncover the inner workings of human biases and judgment. And you’ll gain insights into how inherent bias or poorly structured information can affect business decisions. You will learn to recognize these hurdles so you can develop better decision-making outcomes and improve your bottom line.

I recently completed the Advanced Energy Trading and Risk Management course and found it extremely valuable. The program delivered a strong balance of theory and hands-on application, covering energy markets, derivatives, hedging strategies, and real-world trading simulations.
The course dives into crude oil, LNG, market pricing, and risk frameworks like VaR and stress testing which significantly strengthened my understanding of how physical and financial energy markets interact. I left with greater confidence in building trading strategies, managing volatility, and applying risk management techniques in real trading environments.
I highly recommend this course to energy traders, risk managers, and finance professionals looking to sharpen their market and hedging expertise.
Universities are complex ecosystems where tradition runs deep and change can feel impossible. This program helped me understand culture not as a barrier, but as a lever. The discussions, models, and peer exchanges reframed how I engage faculty and staff in transformation efforts. I left with a clear roadmap and, more importantly, the language to bring people along with me. It was thoughtful, practical, and genuinely transformative for our institution.
In finance, every decision is measured in risk and return — and culture is often the hidden risk no one quantifies. This program gave me practical frameworks to diagnose what was really holding our teams back and the confidence to lead change with precision. The tools weren’t theoretical; we applied them immediately. Within weeks, alignment improved and resistance dropped. It’s rare to find a course this strategic and this actionable at the same time. The certification from Oxford Executive Institute was simply the cherry on top.
