Product Description
Make Every Decision Your Best Decision
Executives rate decision-making ability as the most important business skill, but few people have the training they need to make good decisions consistently.
Becoming a good decision-maker is like training to be a top athlete: Just as the best coaches use training methods to help athletes develop proper techniques and avoid mistakes, Dr. J. Edward Russo and Dr. Paul J. H. Schoemaker have developed a program that can help you avoid "decision traps" -- the ten common decision-making errors that most people make over and over again.
Dr. Russo and Dr. Schoemaker have improved the decision-making skills of thousands of Fortune 500 executives with this program. Now you can use their decision-making techniques to make sure that your last bad decision was your last bad decision.

This review is from: Decision Traps: Ten Barriers to Brilliant Decision-Making and How to Overcome Them (Paperback)
This book covers all the stuff you need to know without burdening you with arcane theory. If you want that you can look up the index, but if you wanted the broader picture here it is. A good decision process will provide the best chance of getting the desired outcome. There is no certainty, but by following the 10 rules you help your odds.

Excellent guide for intelligent decision-making,
By A Customer
This review is from: Decision Traps: Ten Barriers to Brilliant Decision-Making and How to Overcome Them (Paperback)
Extremely readable,insightful and PRACTICAL. I found it difficult to put down! As a practitioner in the field of "human decisioning", I especially appreciated the decision-making tools provided in the book. I highly recommend Decision Traps to anyone who facilitates decision-making of individuals or groups.
