Panmure House Prize - 2025 Winner's Lecture
About The Event
The 2025 Prize was awarded to Professor Tima Bansal, Professor, General Management, Sustainability & Strategy at Ivey Business School, Western University, Canada. A year on, we welcome her to Edinburgh to deliver her winner's lecture, titled: "Executive Decision Making in a Complex Environment".
"Executives are trained to make decisions in complex environments in one of two ways: reduce the complexity or seek to map it in full. The first produces answers that are clean, clear, and confident, but often wrong. The second produces maps that are difficult act on. So we need to show an alternative approach to decision making under complexity." – Professor Tima Bansal
