meta-decisions: deciding how to decide
We work on improving own decision-making for individuals and teams. We also work on bringing desirable changes in others' behaviors.
Here's how:
Solutions
We break down complex challenges to solvable problems. We identify specific problem points and design targeted, effective solutions.
Capacity building
We equip people and teams with the practical tools to reduce bias, improve judgment and solve problems effectively through lasting behavioral change.
Advocacy
We champion behavioral and decision science as essential life and leadership skills by sharing knowledge with the global community to foster more thoughtful, accountable action at every level.
This training has helped me recognize the importance of behavioral insights and modern cognitive tools in policymaking aimed at accelerating the green transition in the economy. I feel that I have gained new knowledge and valuable tools that I can immediately apply in my professional role.

Recent case studies
The head of the company spotted the need to improve their team’s decision quality. From critical thinking and accountability to communication clarity and speed.
​​
We custom-designed a two-day workshop around a specific, important decision that the company's managers need to make on a frequent basis.
We based the workshop on the managers’ existing journey map, and drew from the latest evidence-based strategies and tools to present an array of solutions. We then helped them to customize these solutions in their own context.
​
The result? We helped managers problem-solve better by boosting the quality of the decision process and the way they handle uncertainty.
How we helped an international technology company improve managerial decision-making
Management and analysts alike were in need of help in identifying why demand was so low for what they described as “an attractive, beneficial offering”.
​
We mapped the user journey based on interviews and consultations with all key players. We investigated the structural and behavioral barriers in people’s way.
​
We discovered that the issue was never about the money, but about the difficulty people had in understanding the value of the offer and the process they had to follow.
​
The result? We proposed cost-free, easy to implement changes that the organization used to quickly increase demand.
How we helped a big organization
re-evaluate their offerings and increase customer demand
The management felt the need to step up the quality and quantity of meetings, both internal and external, to improve decisions, efficiency, performance and wellbeing.
​
We designed and delivered a full-day workshop with 25 participants on how to have productive meetings based on practical tools and insights from behavioral science. For example, we explored what needs to happen before the meeting to make sure people show up prepared and interested, but also to safeguard dissenting voices from groupthink.
​
The result? Participants engaged with excitement and got to create their own custom solutions for effective internal as well as client meetings.

In high-stakes sectors like finance and insurance, seasoned professionals are trusted to make complex decisions under pressure. But even the most experienced minds can fall into hidden traps — overconfidence, groupthink, narrow framing — especially when speed and certainty are prized. ​
A leading organization asked us to help their clients’ senior teams sharpen how they think, meet and decide.​
​
We designed a practical, evidence-based program focused on improving decision quality across the board — from strategic choices to operational trade-offs. Using real, live challenges from participants’ own portfolios, we introduced tools to slow down thinking when it matters most, reframe stubborn problems, and generate stronger options.​
​
Participants learned how to spot and reduce bias in team discussions, apply structured judgment methods, and build a culture where quality decisions are expected — not assumed.
The result? More rigorous conversations, clearer thinking in uncertainty, and better alignment around key business choices.
