Project: Employee Training Program Decision. Week 8: Final Project Mohammed Abdullah (BA 611 20 ) Business Intelligence 2025 SU Professor: Felix Hernandez Date: 24TH June, 2025.
Introduction to Decision Problem. Company wants to improve employee performance Three options: Technical Training, Soft Skills Training, No Training Uncertain impact on productivity Budget and time required for each option Goal: Find the best decision Use decision tree method for analysis.

Possible Outcomes & Uncertainty. outcome uncertainty informative O O O O O O uninformative O O less uncertainty associated with each outcome (smaller circles) leads to sharper inferences more uncertainty associated with each outcome (bigger circles) leads to broader inferences inferred probability.

Decision Tree Overview. Decision tree analysis in five steps Start with your idea Add chance and decision nodes Expand until you reach end points Calculate tree values Evaluate outcomes asana.
Technical Skills Training Outcomes. High (50% chance): $30,000 gain Medium (30% chance): $15,000 gain Low (20% chance): $5,000 gain Cost: $10,000 deducted from gains Real payoff = Outcome Gain – $10,000 Expected value to be calculated.
Soft Skills Training Outcomes. [image] SOFT SKILLS.
No Training Outcomes. Defining the Payoff Matrix Evolving Strat Perspective Matters Complexity and Dynamics 06 05 02 03 Understanding the payoff Matrix The Importance of Rational Decision-Making Strategies and Iterations.
Calculations – Expected Values. Technical: EV = (0.5x20,000)+(0.3x5,000)+(0.2x-5,000) = $11,000 Soft Skills: EV = (0.4x17,000)+(0.4x4,000)+(0.2x-5,000) = $7,800 No Training: EV = (0.2x5,000)+(0.5x0)+(0.3x-10,000) = -$1,000 Technical Training gives highest expected value Best decision based on EV But risk also considered.
Risk Considerations. [image] o (tea. If risk-averse: May prefer Soft Skills (less risk) If risk-neutral: Pick Technical (highest EV) If risk-seeking: Maybe No Training (no cost, but high risk) Company’s risk profile affects decision Must match company’s comfort with uncertainty EV is not only factor.
Sensitivity Analysis. Changed Technical success chance from 50% to 30% New EV much lower ($4,000) Technical no longer best option Soft Skills may become better Shows decision is sensitive to probability changes Important to review assumptions.
