This week on the show we throw back to one of our most requested episodes, Bryce’s conversation with Dr. Gary Klein.

Gary is the creator of PreMortem Analysis, a powerful tool designed to help leaders understand the ways their plans could fail so that they can ensure that they don’t. In addition to discussing the origins of PreMortem and how it is used, they talk about how humans make decisions and how leaders can make better ones – particularly in these challenging times.

Gary also discusses his latest innovation, a training tool he calls ShadowBox. Dr. Gary A. Klein is a cognitive psychologist and one of the world’s leading experts on human decision making. He is the author of several books, including Sources of Power: How People Make Decisions and Seeing What Others Don’t: The Remarkable Ways We Gain Insights. Gary pioneered the naturalistic decision-making movement and is the president of ShadowBox Training.

In this episode:

• What is naturalistic decision making and what it reveals about how people make decisions
• How Gary analyzed the way in which people really make decisions, particularly under time pressures
• What leaders can learn from firefighters in order to make better decisions
• What is ShadowBox and how it works
