Knowing what information that the person had at the time making a decision is super important. I want to know how things have been working out for them sort of over the long run. If you withhold information from me, now that's hurting me. You're violating our agreement by not giving me a perspective that disagrees with me. And hopefully, if we're in a decision pod, part of what I'm doing is asking you those questions.
This episode is packed with wisdom from previous guests on the art of making better decisions.
We discuss the three types of decision-makers, how to control your emotions when making decisions, why it’s crucial to look at every decision differently, the processes for coming to the right decision, and how to learn from your mistakes when you get it wrong.
