Ben Cattaneo on Decision-Making (Part Two)

What goes into human decision-making? If you listened to the previous episode of the show with Dr Melina Moleskis on decision-making, then you’ll know what’s coming next. If you didn’t, then don’t worry; you can listen to that after this.

My guest on this episode is Ben Cattaneo, a friend of the show and the founder of The Decision-Making Studio, a startup that helps clients to make better decisions.

In our discussion, we pick up some of the themes I discussed with Melina and explore others. Since Ben’s background is in risk — he hosts the All Things Risk podcast — we explore how, in an uncertain world, making good decisions is critical.

On the episode, you'll hear about:

Ben's experiences of founding The Decision Making Studio;
the importance of integrating human elements into decision-making processes;
the FOCUS framework for improving decision quality;
the need to blend art and science in making decisions;
the flaws in classic MBA case studies for teaching decision-making and the benefits of looking at less-known examples for deeper insights;
the need to shift towards embracing uncertainty as a natural part of decision-making;
the complexity and importance of decision-making in both personal and organizational contexts.

and much more.
