Cognitive Biases in Strategy and Execution

In this episode, Stacey is joined by Alex Castro to talk about accepting that bias does exist, and strategies for managing and moving beyond biased decision-making practices. Biases is a very interesting topic, and one that we take very seriously in life science manufacturing, as it can impact the quality of the product and add undue risk in this highly regulated environment. Interestingly, many do not consider their personal biases and their impacts on our decision-making and general ways of thinking.

About Our Guest:

Alex Castro

Alex Castro is an aligner of execution to strategy for digital transformation & innovation, best-selling author, and creator/founder of ReM Score™. Alex believes that the gap between ideas (strategy) and execution is a persistent problem that is sidelining too many high-potential digital transformation and innovation growth opportunities.

What will set companies apart in these uncertain economic times are those that reduce the falloff rate of good ideas during execution, seeing more of them create value, resulting in ultimately thriving in the ‘next normal.’

Aligning execution to your ideas for digital transformation and innovation is rooted in removing the biases that have us repeating the same errors in estimating our capabilities to execute.

There is a way to calculate your execution capability for each idea you have, so more of them come to life, and you and your company win more. Alex is a charismatic, intelligent, and knowledgeable guest, with plenty of wisdom to share.
