The Inner Chief


Apr 15, 2024

“Decision friction is when you deliberately interrupt your thoughts before forming a judgement. You adopt a series of prompts or questions that are like a speed bump for your mind if you’re in a hot state.”

 

This is a special episode only available to our podcast subscribers, which we call The Mini Chief. These are short, sharp highlights from our fabulous CEO guests, where you get a 5 to 10 minute snapshot from their full episode.

This Mini Chief episode features Nuala Walsh, Founder & CEO of MindEquity and author of Tune In: How to make smarter decisions in a noisy world.

Her full episode is titled The art of decision-making like a ninja, and learning to control your emotions and recognise your biases.
