Training Your Mind for Split-Second Decisions Dr Geoffrey Mount Varner

We make about 35,000 decisions every day.


Most of them are mundane and not significant, but about 70 of those decisions are life-changing and life-altering split-second decisions. What are split-second decisions? They are decisions made when the following factors are involved: time constraint, limited information, and critical consequences. This is also known as the TLC framework.

In this book, you will learn:

? Specific strategies to improve and maximize your split-second decision-making ability.

? To manage decision fatigue, which is the decrease in your ability to make optimal decisions as the day progresses, especially if you had to make several mundane decisions throughout the day.

? The required rules for making split-second decisions- i.e., no decision is a decision. You must decide.

If you are an executive, business leader, chief, first responder, or in a leadership role, the framework for split-second decisions is a tool that gives you an advantage in making optimal decisions at the most critical times. When making split-second decisions, you have either been trained or you are guessing. The same is true for your employees and those you lead. They have either been taught and have a clear framework for what and how to respond during these critical times, or they are guessing.

Split-second decisions teach extraordinary leaders how to make exceptional decisions and help move good teams to greatness.
