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.
