This episode was recorded live with three evidence-based management experts, Denise Rousseau, Rob Briner and Eric Barends, answering and discussing questions sent in by teachers and students of the subject.

During the disucssion, we touched on many aspects of evidence-based management, including:

Starting with basic principles rather than complex frameworks makes evidence-based management accessible to busy professionals
Problem identification is the most critical and often overlooked step in the evidence-based management process
AI tools can support evidence-based decisions but require specific prompting and critical evaluation of outputs
Evidence-based management works best as a team sport where colleagues help identify each other's blind spots - including biases
Rather than trying to build a whole evidence-based culture, start with your sphere of influence and share evidence supportively
Building evidence-based practices requires social networks of support within and outside organizations

If you have questions about evidence-based management that you'd like addressed in future episodes, please send them to us. We're planning to make "Ask the experts" a regular feature of the podcast.
