How do I know who to trust? What about risk? Should I rely on my intuition? How do I best use
my knowledge and experience?These are the dilemmas facing anyone who makes decisions in
business today. Good judgement is crucial to good management in general and leadership in
particular. It covers not only major choices like important hires strategy and big projects
but how organisations shape their culture.Based on a lifetime of research and applied expertise
Andrew Likierman - former dean of London Business School and director of the Bank of England -
asks the questions which have never been asked by business or management books before: What
exactly is judgement? And how do we separate this process from risk decision-making or sheer
luck?Using examples from a diverse range of fields and countries to put forward a radical
six-part framework Likierman explains how to find out whether you have judgement how to
improve it and how to identify it in others - revealing extraordinary opportunities for
self-improvement on the way.
