Do you want to learn how to avoid disastrous decisions that can ruin your business and/or ruin your life?  In this episode, we interview Gleb Tsipursky, PhD, known as the Disaster Avoidance Expert.  Gleb is on a mission to protect leaders from dangerous judgment errors known as cognitive biases by developing the most effective decision-making strategies.  He has over two decades of consulting, coaching, and training experience as CEO of Disaster Avoidance Experts, and over 15 years of experience in academia as a cognitive neuroscientist and behavioral economist.  

In today’s episode we find out what led Gleb to research how to avoid disaster, we discuss some disastrous business decisions and we even learn a bit about Gleb’s college experience at Harvard and UNC Chapel Hill.

Dr. Tsipursky writes for Inc. Magazine, Time, Scientific American, Fast Company and Psychology Today.  A best-selling author, his latest book is Never Go With Your Gut: How Pioneering Leaders Make the Best Decisions and Avoid Business Disasters

We hope you enjoy this interview as much as we did.  Gleb is a wealth of information if you would like to avoid disasters in your business or in your life.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
