Abstract:
What distinguishes a person who makes smart, confident data-driven decisions? It is not exceptional analytic skills or rare expertise. Instead, successful leaders balance data, experience and intuition. They quickly sort through information, apply judgment, and are fierce interrogators who cultivate sharp insights. They apply first-order principles to understand what the decision really is, why it must be taken, by when, and to what end. In short, they make intelligent decisions with incomplete information.
In this presentation Frank, Magnone and Netzer – three seasoned executives and renowned educators – deliver a pragmatic blueprint to frame issues and navigate to data-informed answers. They marry original and insightful research with frontline experience to put forward a set of techniques called Quantitative Intuition (QI)TM. The presentation is based on a new book co-authored by the three presenters called Decisions Over Decimals: Striking the Balance Between Intuition and Information.
