Matthew Isabella sums up 20 years' business consulting and research in this slim manual on making better choices.
This evidence-based approach is distilled from:
- interviewing highly successful people about how they make decisions and create an environment that fosters ongoing success
- reviewing and analyzing board meetings at which key business decisions were made, such as, how do Fortune 500 and ASX-listed company boards make their choices, and what process do they follow to prepare for making key decisions?
- guiding more than 670 businesses to apply these learnings, over more than a decade as a consultant, and seeing their results in real time
- using these methods in personal and business decision-making to improve Matthew's own happiness, health and wealth.
The data is clear: designing and refining a values-based process for decision-making improves your chances of achieving the outcomes you want.
Matthew's life hacks will guide you to make better choices in all areas of life. In following them, you'll learn to live in the present, face the regrets caused by earlier mistakes, identify and share your values, choose your associates effectively, realise when you need to renegotiate relationships, follow your passion, find the courage to embrace making further mistakes, enlist your supporters, and become your best self.
