In this episode I am joined by the exceptional Entrepreneur Paul Gordon. Paul is the Technical Director and CEO of Catalyze APAC a management consulting firm that transforms the way people make decisions—in organisations and individually.
Much of Pauls deep work has been supporting the Decision making within Defence and Security sectors in Australia, NZ and the UK—to
facilitate major decisions, key decision points for major programs and strategic planning
initiatives., which provides a deeply complex level of thinking, perspective and understanding of how the world works.
Paul also is the author of the Amazon Best Selling book Hard Decisions Made Easy.
Together we talk about:
-Decision making as an actual skill, treating it like a gym to optimise your life
-Practical steps on how to make better, stronger decisions
- The similarities between a high stake decision and every day minor decisions and how they can change your world.
- The hardest decision Paul ever had to make
- Accountability, responsibility and the consequences of your decisions
- Are your decisions driven by fear or love?
- awareness and emotional regulation = better decisions
- diversification and language are the secret sauce to successful decision making
- The Jesus Nut of decision making
- The psychology of language and human behaviour
- Get intentional with context and get clear on what the ACTUAL decision is about.
- Sometimes the answer is in what youre NOT saying.
