Recommendation

Management consultants David Brendel and Ryan Stelzer make a comprehensive, heartfelt appeal for evidence-based decision-making that relies on quantitative data analysis combined with wisdom derived from slow thinking, conversation and co-creation of ideas. They call their method “active inquiry,” and they created a model that enables you to practice it. Through stories and findings from neuroscience and psychology, the authors argue that psychologically safe organizations create better workplaces, greater profits – and even solutions to the existential challenges facing humanity.

Take-Aways

  • Make better decisions by balancing the quantitative with the qualitative.
  • An obsession with shareholder value has brought capitalism and society to the brink.
  • Work and society demand a different approach: “active inquiry.”
