Good Morning, HR

Using Behavioral Economics in Decision Making


Listen Later

In this episode, we continue to explore the hot topic of what the workplace will look like in the coming months and years. 

Many business leaders are making decisions based on their past experiences, their individual leadership styles, and their beliefs about what the world of work SHOULD look like. In other words, they’re “following their gut.”

But in doing so, it seems to me that they risk making decisions based on outdated paradigms, personal biases, and the fear of change.

Mike and Agnes discuss the impact of behavioral economics on business leaders’ decision making, how our brains are not designed for modern planning scenarios, and how to overcome our penchant for short-term thinking.
