Leading people is by far the biggest time drain of leadership. However, in the end you are leader because you the decision making authority within your organization. Leaders often freeze at decision making, they can’t seem to grasp that this is a core responsibility of their job. It does not have to be that way though.
My guest today, Michael Schaffer has revolved his life around making decisions and how we can make better ones. Not to mention he has one of the most interesting backgrounds to date on the show!
Making Effective Decisions Topics
The topics which we covered are:
- How his decision-making process works and applies to various situations.
