The Power of Noticing Part II
Do you have ever struggled to discern when to trust someone and when to be skeptical of their claims? Did you ever feel disappointed when you didn’t notice something that was later revealed to be very important? Even experienced leaders can miss important things. Today we are speaking with Max Bazerman, a Harvard Business School professor, about his new book The Power of Noticing.
Max will discuss cognitive blind spots, such as failing to notice when there are gradual changes, not being able to see when things look too good to be true, not being able to spot when an industry is structured in a way that prevents the detection of moral and ethical lapses. Imagine the advantages you would have in negotiations, decision-making and leadership if we could learn to see and judge information that others fail to notice. We’ll be discussing this today.
