Risky Business by Anna Withers
This book draw on decades of research in the fields of psychology, behavioural economics and neuroscience to explain why so-called rational brains are frequently fooled by over 100 powerful unconscious biases. Using a wealth of stories and anecdotes it is an essential guide to anyone wanting to make better decisions.
Anna’s early career was spent in investment banking where she worked in a range of senior roles in the areas of investment analysis and client relationship management. In 1998 she co-founded Mightywaters Consulting and retrained as a psychologist, coach and relationship therapist. Anna has researched the field of decision-making over many years, combining the insights she has gained from working with individuals under stress together with her first-hand experience of decision-making in the highly pressurised world of international finance and investment banking. Mark has worked at the sharp end of the field of organisational development and human relations for nearly 35 years. As Managing Director of Mightywaters Consulting he has consulted with business leaders in a wider range of organisations and across different sectors. A constant theme in his work – whether supporting organisations through transformational change, developing stronger teams or in shaping fit for purpose people practices - has been why do we make the decisions we do and how can we make better decisions?
