Why Smart Teams Make Bad Decisions (And How Women Get Into the Room)

Why do smart teams make bad decisions, and why are women so often left out of the room? Kris Keppeler talks with Kylee Ingram, co-founder and CEO of Wizer, a decision intelligence platform that helps organizations design better decisions through cognitive diversity. Kylee shares the three ingredients of a well-designed decision room and the biases that lead to groupthink and blind spots. She explains why 70% of Western CEOs think in one of two ways, and how designed decision rooms produced 50/50 gender shortlists. She also talks about why almost all of Wizer's communication-tool users are women, many of whom say it eases their anxiety before high-stakes meetings. Plus: why the leader in the room should always speak last. Free decision profile: wizer.business Snaps: wizesnaps.com
