About this course

Two candidates. One promotion. How do you decide—and defend your choice? This course teaches you to explain why performance score, tenure, and potential rating each matter for promotion decisions—and why relying on any single input leads to costly mistakes. You'll build a weighted decision matrix that makes trade-offs explicit and defensible. You'll also learn to use AI tools like ChatGPT to draft plain-language recommendations, then verify the AI's output matches your actual data. Through realistic role plays where you present to a promotion committee and coach dialogues where you navigate political pressure, you'll practice making evidence-based decisions that hold up to scrutiny. Designed for HR professionals and team leads. Basic spreadsheet familiarity helpful. Access to free ChatGPT or Claude recommended.

What you will learn
