How Leaders Can Make Better Decisions
Episode 3
Sunday, 26 January, 2025
Send us a textIn today’s episode of The Leadership Vision Podcast, Nathan Freeburg and Brian Schubring dive into the topic of decision-making. From personal life to leadership, decision-making is an essential skill but most often uncertain. Drawing insights from the book Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don’t Have All the Facts by Annie Duke, the conversation explores how we can make better decisions by managing uncertainty, separating the process from the outcome, and learning from others’ decisions.Key Takeaways:Embrace Uncertainty and Make Decisions Based on Probabilities:Leaders often make decisions based on incomplete information, like poker players assessing probabilities rather than outcomes. Embrace uncertainty, make decisions with the information available, and don’t get paralyzed by fear of making the wrong choice.Separate the Decision-Making Process from the Outcome:The process of decision-making is what we control; outcomes can be unpredictable. Just like the famous NFL play call by Pete Carroll in the Super Bowl, sometimes great decisions don’t lead to great outcomes. It's essential to focus on the quality of the decision-making process, not just the end result.Learn from the Decisions of Others:By observing and reflecting on how others make decisions, especially in high-risk situations, you can build a better understanding of your own decision-making process. It’s not just about mimicking others but evaluating decisions within the context they were made.This episode is packed with leadership insights and practical advice to help leaders at all levels improve their decision-making processes. Whether leading a team or making personal choices, these strategies can help you navigate uncertainty with greater confidence and clarity.Resources Mentioned:Thinking in Bets by Annie DukeLeadership Vision Consulting: leadershipvisionconsulting.comSupport the show-Read the full blog post here!CONTACT US email: connect@leadershipvisionconsulting.com LinkedIn Facebook Leadership Vision Online ABOUTThe Leadership Vision Podcast is a weekly show sharing our expertise in discovering, practicing, and implementing a Strengths-based approach to people, teams, and culture.
