The properties of judgment have an alchemical quality to them, able to transform adversity into opportunity for gifted leaders while proving elusive, career-ending, or even fatal to others. In Judgment, Mailander takes you on a journey alongside a Cold War nuclear submarine commander hunting an enemy in the Sea of Japan, a Wall Street executive challenged to avert a global financial crisis, and the senior director of the White House Situation Room standing up the US national security apparatus in response to terrorist attacks in Paris. Through these gripping accounts, hidden codes and universal patterns of judgment well exercised are revealed. Readers will discover invaluable insights to: - Identifying trigger points within the decision-making process that create opportunities for steering the course in your favor - Avoid the common errors leaders make, such as relying on a one-size-fits-all decision archetype or succumbing to common cognitive biases - Seven indicators that illuminate the probable trajectory of a decision arc and gauge the strength or vulnerability of the decision-maker's position. Judgment is a clear-eyed telling of the conditions that can change the course of a business, an economy, or a nation. It reveals the deeper codes and common patterns within critical decisions, and offers a collection of clues to look for and the methodologies that can be used by strategists, planners, and leaders - whether they be in the boardroom or on the battlefield - to improve their own leadership when it matters the most.
