Synopsis
Specification
There is no shortage of books on decision making. Books that tell you how irrational you are, how being rational is holding you back or how competing brain systems cause chaos with your ability to choose wisely. All of these make it difficult to decide how to decide.
DECIDE cuts through the clutter. Part science and part practice, DECIDE follows Tremaine’s decade long quest to answer the question: what is a good decision and how do I make one? The answer is illustrated with examples from her pioneering work in building decision-making systems for teams up to large multinational organisations.
Tremaine’s straight talk and use of the latest (and most reliable) research lead you on a path of discovery as you unpack your own decision-making process, plug the holes in it and learn new skills to ensure that you make the best possible decisions. DECIDE is an indispensable guide for individuals, teams and leaders.
Tremaine du Preez is a decision scientist and international thought leader on a mission to spread the art and science of good decision making. She is a researcher, global faculty member of Duke Corporate Education (a carve-out from Duke’s Fuqua School of Business) and consultant to the private and public sector on organisational decision making.
Since 2008 she has worked across Asia, Africa and Europe diagnosing decision-making difficulties and building decision-making strategies for individuals and teams up to large multinational organisations. She lectures in behavioural finance, decision science and critical thinking to academic and professional audiences worldwide.
Tremaine is the author and co-author of 4 books and founder of DECIDE: A Decision-Making Consultancy. She has lived in South Africa, Hong Kong and Singapore, and currently lives in London with her family.
