In my last video, I highlighted a very specific characteristic that separates many high-performing executives from their more average counterparts. The highest-performing executives routinely avoided cognitive mistakes that are well-known and well-documented. Confirmation bias is a performance killer. It often relegates very talented individuals into patterns that stifle their creativity and lead to very siloed decision-making processes. Unsurprisingly, if you only look for what you think you should find… that’s often all you will find. Don’t make this crucial mistake.
