The Water We Swim In: A New Look at Cognitive Evolution

M Reynolds International Journal of Coaching in Organizations 2006

Using research in cognitive development and decision theory, this article presents a new model of decision making that will help you understand both your own processes and why those you live and work with make the decisions they do. The focus is on viewing how the brain works when faced with making a decision, what factors hinder and help when it comes to seeing options, and methods for helping ourselves - and others - in an organization to develop higher levels of thinking so we are better able to transfer our knowledge into positive behavioral change.
