Hi everyone! My name is Sonu, and I'm back with another book 📙 review to share with all of you on LinkedIn. Today, I'm excited to talk about 'The Decision Book' by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler. If you're looking to enhance your decision-making abilities and broaden your strategic thinking skills, this book is an indispensable resource for you!
We all know that work can be easy, but it's the people we work with that can make things difficult. Knowing how to work with others is essential for success, regardless of your field of expertise. Interactions can either make or break relationships, and the decisions we make in various situations can ultimately determine outcomes.
Our decision-making skills are shaped by our desires, upbringing, environment, and life experiences. But the good news is that as we age, we can improve our decision-making, especially in relation to others. The book explains that by understanding how we make decisions, improving ourselves, understanding others, and helping them improve, we can enhance our decision-making skills.
As the saying goes, time can change the value of a decision, and what may seem wrong today could become the right choice tomorrow. That's why perspective and foresight are essential in determining the outcome of a decision.
'The Decision' is a great guide for anyone involved in decision making, as it summarizes 50 models for decision making and strategic thinking. The book provides frameworks on how to develop a strategy, choose among alternatives, and make smart decisions. What's interesting is that almost half of the models focus on personal decision making, making it a valuable resource for Managers, Entrepreneurs, and anyone looking to improve their decision-making skills.
This book is like a map, guiding you to the right model for your needs.
🗸 Model 1.How to improve yourself: 13 approaches.
