Skills - Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment

Description

Product Description

♦ Book Synopsis: From the Nobel Prize-winning author of Thinking, Fast and Slow and the coauthor of Nudge, a revolutionary exploration of why people make bad judgments and how to make better ones—"a tour de force” (New York Times). Imagine that two doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients—or that two judges in the same courthouse give markedly different sentences to people who have committed the same crime. Suppose that different interviewers at the same firm make different decisions about indistinguishable job applicants—or that when a company is handling customer complaints, the resolution depends on who happens to—answer—the—phone. Now imagine that the same doctor, the same judge, the same interviewer, or the same customer service agent&mash;makes different decisions depending on whether it is morning or afternoon, or Monday rather than Wednesday. These are examples of noise: variability in judgments that should be identical. In Noise, Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass R. Sunstein show the detrimental effects of noise in many fields, including medicine, law, economic forecasting, forensic science, bail, child protection, strategy, performance reviews, and personnel selection. Wherever there is judgment, there is noise. Yet, most of the time, individuals and organizations alike are unaware of it. They neglect noise. With a few simple remedies, people can reduce both noise and bias, and so make far better decisions. Packed with original ideas, and offering the same kinds of research-based insights that made Thinking, Fast and Slow and Nudge groundbreaking New York Times bestsellers, Noise explains how and why humans are so susceptible to noise in judgment—and what we can do about it.

Details

Are you tired of making bad judgments and decisions? Introducing Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment, the groundbreaking book by Nobel Prize-winning author Daniel Kahneman and coauthors Olivier Sibony and Cass R. Sunstein. This revolutionary exploration delves into the reasons behind our flawed judgments and offers practical solutions to help you make better decisions.

Imagine a world where doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients, or where judges in the same courthouse hand out markedly different sentences for the same crime. Picture a scenario where interviewers at the same firm make different choices for identical job applicants. Sound far-fetched? These situations, known as noise, occur more often than you might think.

In Noise, the authors reveal the detrimental effects of noise in various fields such as medicine, law, economic forecasting, and more. They highlight how even the smallest factors, like the time of day or the day of the week, can significantly impact decision-making. But fear not, because Noise doesn't just uncover the problem—it provides practical solutions that can reduce both noise and bias in our judgments.

This engaging book is packed with original ideas, offering research-based insights that made Kahneman's previous works bestselling sensations. Noise explains why humans are inclined to be influenced by noise in judgment, and most importantly, what we can do to combat it. By understanding the nature of noise and implementing a few simple remedies, you can make far better decisions and avoid the costly consequences that come with flawed judgments.
