bCisive™ – Designed to Help Evaluate Business Decisions and Path Forward; Brings Certainty during Uncertain Economic Times
SAN FRANCISCO, October 22
Austhink, the leading provider of critical thinking software, today announced bCisive for corporate executives, the industry’s first and only decision mapping solution designed to simplify, track and convey the thinking behind key business decisions.

Austhink founder Tim van Gelder recently spoke with Consulting Magazine about how bCisive can inspire critical thinking, improving productivity and accelerating training and upskilling.
