Brainology: Sharp Decision Making

What this infographic shows

From shopping to investing, we can make good decisions simply by avoiding common errors
for many routine choices. Leaders must possess the ability to shape opinions, inspire
followers, manage risk, and outmanoeuvre and outperform rivals. Making winning decisions
calls for a combination of skills: precise analysis and calculation left brains and the
willingness to push boundaries and take bold action-right stuff. Leaders need to understand
the dynamics of competition, anticipate rival moves, draw on the power of statistical analysis,
and be aware of common decision errors--all features of left-brain thinking. But to achieve
the unprecedented in real-world situations much more is needed. In business, they have to
devise plans and inspire followers for successful execution. In politics, they must mobilise
popular support for a chosen program; in the military, commanders need to commit to a battle
strategy and lead their troops; in start-ups, entrepreneurs must manage risk when success is
uncertain. Since the brain function in decision-making is essential, are you ready to master
your brainpower to decide?
