From the multi-million copy bestselling author of Thinking Fast and Slow Daniel Kahneman, the co-author of the million-copy bestseller Nudge Cass Sunstein, and the eminent professor and writer on strategic thinking Olivier Sibony, a new book about how to make better decisions.
We make thousands of decisions every day, from minute choices we don’t even know we’re making up to great, agonising deliberations. But when every decision we make is life-changing, the way we reach them matters. And for every decision, there is noise.
This book teaches us how to understand all the extraneous factors that impact and bias our decision-making – and how to combat them and improve our thinking. Filled with new science, fascinating case studies and revealing practical examples, the skills this book teaches can be readily used by private or public institutions, by schools, hospitals, businesses, judges and in our everyday lives.
This book contained some fantastic realisations and teachings. Leaders and decision-makers will find it very useful.
It is a comprehensive book on noise with thorough breakdown in the types of noise, why noise reduction is important, and the six decision hygiene principles which I found to be very relevant and some of which can be easily incorporated to my project management work. I suppose people who are interested in strategic thinking/decision making might like to read this book too.
we make decisions everyday, and our daily routine will influence our decision making. learn how to overcome outside influence and mke our decisions better. good read.
Since the Thinking Fast and Slow book published, Ive keep on waiting Daniel Kahneman book since I am very impress with his writing. He put a lot of reference and case studies, together with his research. This make his works feel very convincing and valid. Considered one of modern gurus on thinking skill and decision making skills, everyone who always hesitate and having doubt ahould read this masterpiece.
