How to make good decisons | Mikael Krogerus & Roman Tschappeler | TEDxDanubia

Mikael and Roman’s funny but profound talk presents us with decision‐making strategies most of us practice and reveals typical problems like TMI (too much information), PDF (post‐decision feeling) and the truth about perfection (that no one has ever seen but is rumoured to exist). With a remarkable casualness the duo gives us a summary of their bestseller book titled The Decision Book: 50 Models for Strategic Thinking.

Finnish-born, but raised in Sweden and Germany, Mikael is an editor of Switzerland’s biggest weekly magazine “Das Magazin”. Prior to that he was a staff writer for NZZ FOLIO, and worked as a copywriter for various advertising agencies.

A graduate from the Zurich University of Arts, Swiss-born Roman is a Biel-based creative producer, consulting and producing various projects ranging from documentary movies and campaigns to art installations, pop music and cook books.

Took me 10 minutes to decide which video to watch about decision making.

[silmaril]

I'm currently at the stage of "not knowing if I actually do regret a decision, and should therefore change it, or if I'm just overthinking stuff"...Nice talk!

[wrenillusions]

This is an incredible TEDx talk, applause to them 👏🏻

[dagobertopinto]

One of the best videos about decision-making. Bravo!

[mirask]

Great talk! Loved their chalk-blackboard presentation. The doodles were cool and cute, it isn't as easy to do that at such speed and multitask. They managed to inclued much info and concepts into the time limit. One of the best of the Ted talks on this topic for me.

The title is incorrect this is not about how to make decisions this is actually just an examination of the decision-making process and how you feel in each stage of the process.

[prernakumari]

This duo is awesome and this approach as well. I literally enjoyed the whole 18-19 mins . I've managed to answer the end question as well. Lots of love to both the speakers and this channel as well. Well done!

[wazehforsuh]

Love the blend in fun and statistics.
Valuable information here

[classicblue]

This talk is informative as well as entertaining.

[DuaneJasper]

Damn those 3 circles he drew were sharp!

I enjoyed this talk and hearing your perspective on 3 aspects that affect decision making: preparation, timing, regrettability. Also, by being conscious of things that we dont know we don't know, we should do all that we can to glean information from others' experiences who have done the job we are trying to undertake or have already walked the road that we have, and are will willing to share their knowledge. This can be by reading books that have been written on the subject or through conversation.

[relentless]

I like the chemistry between them, the content is also great, but are there more talks of them on this topic? This looks so time-limited?

[annaleonwens]

I really enjoyed the presentation. It gives more knowledge for me i can think more example.

4th stage of decision making- deciding whether to undo the decision or not.

[fritzjhemarllauriano]

This video is so good for the college students 😁

[prem]

I can tell that these dudes were nervous, but great job.

[melnjada]

uhmmm, can someone explain how this would help me make a decision? because they were just explaining the process...the only takeaway for me was that "the earlier in life you make a decision the bigger the consequences".

[davidanthony]

What about, Unknown - Must Know Unknowns vs Unknown - Good to Have Known Unknowns. If you must know. I guess it all depends on timing. Timing is everything.

[pradeeptavirlleypv]

Thanks >>> Will implement these three parameters :)

I noticed there are 2 of the speakers. 2 minds will make good decisions.
