Overview

Los grandes principios de Kahneman sobre la toma de decisiones y los factores que influyen en el éxito.

Las evidencias son inquietantes: la mayoría de las grandes iniciativas de negocios no rinden fruto. Según los economistas, los malos resultados son una consecuencia inevitable del hecho de que las empresas corran riesgos racionales en situaciones inciertas. Sin embargo, tras analizarlo desde la psicología, los autores consideran que ese fracaso es consecuencia de una toma de decisiones basada en un optimismo ilusorio en lugar de en una valoración racional de ganancias, pérdidas y probabilidades.

Los sesgos cognitivos y las presiones organizativas que se hallan en el origen de ese exceso de optimismo son omnipresentes, pero sus efectos pueden atenuarse. Complementando los procesos tradicionales de previsión con el análisis de iniciativas análogas finalizadas con anterioridad, los directivos pueden discernir de manera mucho más precisa el desenlace probable de un proyecto. Esa «visión externa» es un baño de realidad que reduce las probabilidades de que una empresa se embarque en una inversión de tiempo y dinero desastrosa.

Los IMPRESCINDIBLES de Conecta, en colaboración con Harvard Business Review, permiten acceder a las grandes ideas de los autores de referencia que inspiran a directivos y profesionales. Este volumen reúne los textos «La falsa ilusión del éxito», de Daniel Kahneman y Dan Lovallo, y «Antes de tomar una gran decisión», de Kahneman, Lovallo y Olivier Sibony.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Kahneman’s profound principles about decision making and the factors that influence success.

The evidence is disconcerting: most large business initiatives do not bear fruit. According to economists, the bad results are a consequence of the inevitable fact that businesses take rational risks in uncertain situations. Nevertheless, after analyzing the psychology, the authors consider that this failure is a due to making a decision based on illusory optimism instead of a rational assessment of earnings, losses, and probabilities.

Cognitive biases and organizational pressures that are at the origin of this excess of optimism are ubiquitous, but their effects can be lessened. By complementing the traditional forecasting processes with the analysis of similar initiatives completed previously, managers can discern in a much more precise way the probable outcome of a project. This "external vision" is a dose of reality that reduces the chances of a company embarking on a disastrous investment of time and money.

The ESSENTIALS of Conecta, in collaboration with Harvard Business Review, allow access to the reference authors’ great ideas that inspire managers and professionals. This volume brings together the texts "The False Illusion of Success," by Daniel Kahneman and Dan Lovallo, and "Before Making a Big Decision," by Kahneman, Lovallo and Olivier Sibony.
