    About this ebook

    The must-read summary of Michael Mauboussin's book: "Think Twice: Harnessing the Power of Counterintuition".

    This complete summary of the ideas from Michael Mauboussin's book "Think Twice" reveals the reasons why people sometimes make bad decisions. In his book, the author explains that this comes down to the mental software that is hardwired into the human brain. Most of us would rather do whatever comes to mind first rather than properly calibrating the evidence which lies at hand and applying that to our decision making. This summary demonstrates why you should try and think twice when making decisions in order to reduce the number of mistakes you make.

    Added-value of this summary:
    • Save time
    • Understand key concepts
    • Expand your knowledge

    To learn more, read "Think Twice" and find out how to make better decisions in your personal and professional life.
