Chapter 7 Decision Making Top Hat: Consider the letter K. Is K more likely to to appear as the first letter in a word, or as he third letter?Answer: first Easier to think of words that start with “K” than words that have “K” as the third letterTwo Decision Making Systems System 1Fast, automatic, and largely unconscious This is our intuition System 2 Slow, deliberate, analytical, and very conscious This is when we analyze possibilities, collect and consider available information, etc. A baseball bat and ball cost $1.10. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost? Will tomorrow’s high temp. Be over 70 degrees? Habits Exist in System 1 The power of Habit More than 40% of the decisions we make each day are habitual. Cue- Routine - Reward A cue is a trigger that tells your brain which habit to use and puts its into automatic mode. A routine is what we do to act out the habit. This can be physical, mental, or emotional. A reward is the result of the routine and reinforces the habit. Intuition and “Thin Slicing” Thin-slicing The unconscious mind’s ability to find patterns and meaning in the most fleeting “slices” of experience and impressions. Examples: Expert psychologists ability to predict, with 95% accuracy, whether a couple will still be together in 15 year’s timeAnother psychologists ability to judge someone’s closest friends just based on the contents of his or her dorm room. Textbooks calls this a “holistic hunch” Intuition Model Intuition is making a choice without the use of conscious thought or logical inference; stems from: Expertise, which is a person’s explicit and tacit knowledge about a person, a situation, an object, or a decision opportunity (also known as a holistic hunch)Automated experience, which is the involuntary emotional response to those same matters.

Evidence-based management is not just for senior executives. 5. Like everything else, you still need to sell it. 6. IF all else fails, slow the spread of bad practice. 7. The best diagnostic question: What happens when people fail? What Makes it Hard to be Evidence Based There’s too much evidenceThere’s not enough good evidenceThe evidence doesn’t quite apply. People are trying to mislead you. You are trying to mislead you. The side effects outweigh the cure. Stories are more persuasive anyway.
