How to make the right management decision. Bazerman M.Kh., Moore D.

This book is devoted to how cognitive processes can lead a person into a dead end or deceive - and how to cope with this in order to learn how to make the right life and managerial decisions. The authors refer to a number of studies of psychologists who have discovered and described the mechanisms that the human brain constantly uses, and typical traps, where people regularly fall due to the characteristics of human thinking-from unnecessary purchases, hiring inappropriate workers and problematic investments to bankruptcy, ineffectiveness of public administration, and social injustice. Specialists of any professions are subject to these cognitive distortions - auditors and managers, politicians and sellers.

The book offers a number of exercises that will allow readers to identify cognitive distortions, and a number of strategies helping to get around the trap of thinking, learn to make better decisions and protect themselves, their family and their colleagues from mistakes, which can be avoided.

The book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in business, economics, psychology, sociology.
