Description
"We live in rapidly changing times, and only those who are willing and able to adapt to those changes will not only survive but actually thrive. That means being prepared to recognize and change how we make decisions. In Labyrinth, author Pawe�� Motyl draws on twenty-plus years of business experience and rigorous research to present an in-depth analysis of the processes we use for making decisions in both everyday contexts and crisis situations that will ultimately guide readers to make conscious, proactive decisions rather than just reacting to events and circumstances, or relying on tried and tested methods that may no longer be relevant in a particular circumstance. In this engaging narrative, Motyl showcases his fifteen rules for effective decision-making and explains different types of decision-making processes and the most appropriate circumstances in which to use-or avoid-each of them. Illustrated with a series of case studies as diverse as the Cuban missile crisis, the Apollo 13 rescue mission, and the ill-fated Daimler-Chrysler merger, he identifies the strengths and weaknesses of decisions made at various points in the process-and the innovative approaches behind many solutions to apparently insurmountable problems. While many of his examples are drawn from "black swan" situations, the learnings from this book are equally applicable to less dramatic scenarios. Whether you apply the lessons in Labyrinth to work or your personal life, you'll come away from this book enlightened and inspired to reassess your approach to decision-making."--,Provided by publisher.
