    About this audiobook

    Learn how to make better, faster decisions.

    As a manager you have to make decisions-from daily choices about team priorities to deciding which long-term innovation projects to pursue. But most decisions don't have a clear-cut answer, and assessing the alternatives and the risks involved can be overwhelming.

    You need a smarter approach to making the best choice possible. The HBR Guide to Making Better Decisions provides practical tips and advice to help you identify the problem, evaluate your alternatives, select the right path forward, and follow through successfully.

    You'll learn to: look at the problem from different angles; overcome cognitive biases that can skew your choices; use data to inform your thinking; work through uncertainty and analysis paralysis; communicate your choice and spur your team into action; and respond to and fix a bad decision.
