System 1 and 2 Thinking
Manage episode 516076000 series 3652867
Continuing on our decisions series, this week we’re breaking down Daniel Kahneman’s influential model of System 1 and System 2 thinking: the fast, intuitive decisions we make on autopilot versus the slow, deliberate ones that require effort. We talk about how stress, bias, and context shift us between these modes, when each type of thinking serves us best, and how simple strategies like pausing, labeling biases, and using decision tools can lead to smarter choices.
