About this episode
Episode 727 discusses the balance leaders must maintain between using decision support tools and retaining personal judgment to avoid negative impacts on culture and strategy.
Decision support tools can improve leadership performance, but over-reliance creates blind spots that damage culture, strategy, and decision quality. Episode 727 explores how great leaders use data, AI, and analytics without surrendering judgment and accountability.
