Deep dives
Organizations are not well aligned with how humans think, work, and learn
One of the main issues organizations face is not aligning with how humans think, work, and learn. Many organizations still rely on outdated practices such as annual or semi-annual reviews, despite evidence showing their ineffectiveness. This mismatch stems from a misconception that humans function as formal logical reasoning beings when in reality, cognitive science and behavioral economics demonstrate that we have systematic flaws. This distorted view leads to ineffective training methods and policies that hinder people's ability to perform at their best.
