Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman
Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman
Content
The best part of my job is facilitating our team-based simulation events around the world, and the most interesting part of that opportunity is watching how people communicate, strategize, and make decisions under conditions of ambiguity.
