Episode 3 of 5
“Preparing for Crisis” is a documentary series for company executives to raise awareness of the need for radical changes in the way companies think about and prepare for threats to their business. We’d like to thank all our clients who took part in the filming for their insights gained from years of experience.
This episode discusses the problems of decision-making under pressure and introduces the concept of “decision inertia” in which despite intense mental problem-solving, leaders fail to act.
