With Pfeffer’s guidance, your team will gain the tools to align decisions with evidence, creating a smarter, more effective organization. Don’t miss the opportunity to align your company’s practices with evidence-based insights and drive smarter decision-making—under the guidance of one of the leading authorities in management.
