Join this week as Jonna and Chris, delve into the intricate world of decision-making. Starting with the fundamental notion of deciding to make decisions, the duo explore subconscious decision-making, heuristic decisions, and the relationship between risky decisions and successful businesses. Tackle the importance of sensible decisions over risky ones, challenging the idea that business and logic don't mix. Tune in to explore how individuals and businesses can optimise their decision-making strategies.
