How to Make Great Decisions with Professor Marc Buehner
Description
Today I’m talking to Professor Marc Buehner about how we make decisions
Marc is professor of cognitive Psychology at Cardiff University in Wales where he designed a course in decision making which he teaches to final-year students.
I’ve always been pretty indecisive, so when I learned recently that you can formally study the decision-making process and how to make better ones I wanted to know more
When I looked at some of the material on the course I was struck by how logical and mathematical this process can be when to my mind much of it seems to be intuitive and emotional. And maybe that’s why I am so indecisive?
Here Marc talks about what constitutes a good or a bad decision why numbers and logic are an important part of the process of making good decisions and why people can’t get their heads around the terrible odds of playing the lottery. And plenty more besides
If you want to get a taste of what Marc Teaches then check out his youtube lecture which is for his uni students. I'll put a link on my website www.monkonamotorbike.com where you can also find out more about Marc and some of his suggestions for further reading
