Decision Making Quotes by Malcolm Gladwell
- Our unconscious is really good at quick decision-making - it often delivers a better answer than more deliberate and exhaustive ways of thinking.
- The key to good decision making is not knowledge. It is understanding. We are swimming in the former. We are desperately lacking in the latter.
- Truly successful decision-making relies on a balance between deliberate and instinctive thinking.
- understanding the true nature of instinctive decision making requires us to be forgiving of those people trapped in circumstances where good judgment is imperiled.
