Noreena graduated from university when she was 19 years old. Within four years she was advising the Russian government on its economic reforms and investors on M&A transactions as the Russian economy opened up to capitalism. At the age of 29, Noreena was working with the governments of Israel, Egypt, Palestine and Jordan on the role economics could play in the Middle East peace process

    How to make smart decisions in a complex world

    • “Invaluable for anyone making tough decisions in today’s complex world” Dominic Barton, Global Managing Director of McKinsey & Co.
    • We make 10,000 decisions as day. 277 just about food. But whilst it doesn’t matter really if you choose a cappuccino over a latte when it comes to high stakes decisions – at home or at work – the choices you make really do matter.
    • Yet we think surprisingly little about how it is we come to decisions.
    • Instead we typically repeat decision-making strategies that have worked for us in the past.
    • We turn to experts, trust our guts, run options by our colleagues, go with what just feels right.
    • As bestselling author and professor Noreena Hertz will argue each  of these strategies can lead us badly astray.
    • In this  keynote speech, Hertz encourages the audience to identify their own potential thinking and decision-making traps and biases, but also lays out the concrete steps we all can take in the digital era  to become smarter and wiser decision makers ourselves
