The Behavioral Divide with Hal Hershfield

Process over Results: Tips to Improve Your Approach to Big Decisions


Listen Later

Not all bad outcomes result from bad decisions just like not all good outcomes come from good decisions. This simple thought speaks to the importance of the process of making decisions and not just their results, particularly when any amount of luck is involved. We probably don’t want to repeat bad decisions just because last time we got lucky and things worked out great!

On this episode of The Behavioral Divide, presented by Avantis Investors®, Professor Hal Hershfield speaks with two guests about the science of decision making and tips they’ve found effective for improving our approach to big decisions. Joining Hal for this discussion are former poker pro, best-selling author, and decision strategist Annie Duke along with Ben Felix, CIO of PWL Capital and one of the hosts of the popular Rational Reminder podcast.

They cover how to implement better processes for decision making, how to reduce the risk of behavioral bias in your decisions, how to judge the quality of your decisions, and more.
