Re: How Hidden Biases Sabotage Your Decisions

How often do you have a conversation with someone about a technical issue and they persuade a group of people to follow a particular course of action just through force of personality and several quickly thrown out numbers?

This describes that situation exactly. Most good 'arguers' are good because of they way they present the material. Not because they are right.

I thoroughly enjoyed that seminar.
