Shane Parrish's Journey to Clear Thinking

Shane Parrish, founder of Farnham Street and author of 'Clear Thinking', shares his unique career path that shaped his insights on decision-making. Beginning his journey with a three-letter intelligence agency right before September 11, he quickly learned the challenges of working under crisis conditions. As a computer scientist, he realized that no formal training existed for effective decision-making, prompting him to interact with senior leaders for guidance. This experience led him to create Farnham Street, where he aggregated knowledge to improve decision-making processes in his organization.
