In this episode of Career Dreams, Dr. Ali Atkison, VP of Learning & Development at HRD, The Leadership Development Company, explores three invisible thinking traps that quietly shape how we make decisions, especially in moments of uncertainty. When things feel unclear or high-pressure, our brains tend to default to fast, emotional reactions. Ali breaks down why that happens, and more importantly, shares a few simple, practical ways to slow down our thinking and make clearer, more effective decisions.
Dr. Atkison’s work at HRD is grounded in making the world a better place one leader at a time. She is author of the book, How’s Your Computer-side Manner?: The 9 Digital Communication Mistakes You’re Making That Are Holding You Back.
