How to Decide Simple Tools for Making Better Choices

Rezension

"'The decisions you make are like a portfolio of investments.' I believe that almost everything can be viewed as a portfolio -- whether it's a set of products a single company decides to make, the schools and jobs and skills an individual invests in, and all kinds of life decisions. The question is, how do we make sure that portfolio as a whole advances you toward your goals -- even though any individual decision within it is a win or loss? In this new book, Annie provides exercises for how to decide. All of us -- not just investors -- should be obsessed with making better decisions." 
--Marc Andreessen, cofounder of Netscape and Andreessen Horowitz

"How to Decide is a delightful, practical guide to making better decisions in a complex world.
