The Power of Reflection
Using Past Mistakes To Make Smarter Decisions
Thursday, January 30, 2025, 2pm
EST
Event Overview
We all have scores of decisions to make every day, and we often want to move quickly, telling ourselves that speed equals efficiency. True efficiency, however, sometimes requires slowing down, being mindful, and especially looking back at the decisions we’ve made that didn’t go as we’d hoped.
We rarely want to spend time and mental energy revisiting the past, particularly if it involves reflecting on uncomfortable missteps. Yet stopping and carefully considering those mistakes is exactly what can help us make better decisions moving forward.
Join Cornell Tech Professor Cheryl Einhorn as we learn how to think of your past decisions as a dataset that you can mine for insights to make better future decisions.
What You'll Learn
- How to use past decisions as a dataset that you can mine for insights
- How to turn insight into action
- Strategies to shift your behavior going forward
