Why Smart People Make Terrible Decisions
Ever spent hours agonizing over a choice, only to realize months later you'd been asking the wrong question entirely? That gnawing feeling isn't a personal failing-it's a design flaw in how our minds approach decisions. Consider Shannon, a consulting firm leader stuck debating whether to fire Clive, her brilliant but toxic IT director. She's caught in what feels like an impossible bind: keep the irreplaceable expert who knows their entire client database, or cut loose the attitude problem dragging down her team. Most of us would dive straight into weighing these two options, completely missing that we've already made our first mistake. We've accepted a false choice. The statistics on our decision-making abilities are humbling. Nearly half of lawyers regret their career choice. Four out of ten senior executives fail within their first eighteen months. A staggering 83% of corporate mergers destroy shareholder value rather than create it. These aren't just bad luck-they're predictable failures caused by four specific mental traps. What's fascinating is that decision quality depends six times more on process than analysis. Your spreadsheet isn't the problem; your approach is. The antidote isn't more analysis-it's a better process that systematically counteracts these biases, switching from autopilot to manual control of where we direct our attention.
