Publisher's summary

Most of us face the same questions every day: What do I want? How can I get it? How can I live more happily and work more efficiently?

Whether you're a chronic second-guesser or just eager for new ways to look at your world, Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler will teach you how to improve your understanding of the dilemmas you face and how to make better decisions every day.

Taught in MBA courses and elsewhere, The Decision Book contains classics like the Swiss cheese model for reviewing mistakes and the personal performance model for testing whether or not to switch jobs.

This revised edition includes a model for identifying cognitive biases and the expectation model to help you choose a life partner. The Decision Book is the perfect reference to consult at any crossroads.

Dull to listen to

Perhaps this is a book better read, not listened to. I found it quite dull to listen to and don’t think I took much away from it. It feels like 4 hours of someone reading you a point form list.

Methodical and effective

This book is very good for exploring different processes of decision making and organizing thoughts. It will probably have to live on your bookshelf for a while as a reference type of book. I would recommend it to anybody who is in a position of making tough and difficult decisions.

Need visuals

This would be a good book but it is very limiting in audio format. 3 stars

Not meant for audio format

You need to be able to read the book and see the graphics and models being discussed to fully understand the concept.

Buy the physical book

This is a great book however it really is just a work book you miss a lot of the book because you cannot see the images and you can't easily refer back to it to see the different methods for application in your life
