Facts, Data, and Evidence: Knowing What to Trust or Can We Really Trust Evidence?
Welcome to Strategy Skills episode 459, featuring an interview with the author of May Contain Lies: How Stories, Statistics, and Studies Exploit Our Biases―And What We Can Do about It, Alex Edmans. In this book, renowned economist Alex Edmans teaches us how to separate fact from fiction. Using colorful examples, he highlights the biases that cause us to mistake statements for facts, facts for data, data for evidence, and evidence for proof.
Alex Edmans is Professor of Finance at London Business School and an expert in the use and misuse of data and evidence. He has given the TED talk What to Trust in a Post-Truth World with 2 million views, spoken at the World Economic Forum in Davos, and testified in the UK Parliament.
Alex served as Managing Editor of the Review of Finance, the leading academic finance journal in Europe. He has written for the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, and Harvard Business Review, and been interviewed by Bloomberg, BBC, CNBC, CNN, ESPN, Fox, ITV, NPR, Reuters, Sky News, and Sky Sports. He was previously a tenured professor at Wharton and an investment banker at Morgan Stanley.
Alex’s first book, Grow the Pie: How Great Companies Deliver Both Purpose and Profit, was featured in the Financial Times Best Business Books of 2020 and has been translated into nine languages. Alex was named Professor of the Year by Poets & Quants in 2021 and won 25 teaching awards at LBS and Wharton. Alex has a BA from Oxford and a PhD from MIT as a Fulbright Scholar, and is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences.

Good podcast. Justin clearly articulated the process.
Man code
This was fascinating! So very insightful! Richard Rumelt is a master at his craft!
This is important work
I think there's an issue, that women who are trying to be very competitive in a male sense, often do it by their understanding of how men behave. Like women who show aggression. It's not that aggression is universally accepted from men (obviously). But then you should wonder when exactly aggression from men is considered good (or acceptable anyway). Like, if Steve Jobs was horrible at times... That was fine.
wow women hmmm
In poker everything depends on chance, but top players are always skillful. Even if minor fluctuations affects the result, it's the skill and planning and modelling that helps to navigate through the different factors.
Not everyone is unhappy there. Status is part of the human definition of happiness. The mission matters to people. Without people like Elon, things go slow, great things that should happen might not happen at all. It's just that not everyone can thrive in such environments. Not everyone could've been a hunter or soldier either. But those kinds of roles have still been key to survival and building greater civilizations. Safety and greatness do not aligned. At most one might say that greatness enables safety as a byproduct.
Love this mindset unfortunately people don’t care.
This is not just business advice, this is life advice -- thank you
I will follow u to see more information about this article
Wow very nicely explained! Thanks a lot for sharing this valuable piece of information 😊
Stop making your employees perform the work of multiple people. 💯
She's full of crap. Listen to Petersen.
Good realization.
it's really a nice presentation. I love it.
Good mindset.
I like both Pepsi and cola except Diet Pepsi is better than Diet Coke .
My own way of looking at that was that I was improving the efficiency of the system by taking account of what others likely wouldn't do well, and also reducing communication round trips.

Are you from Russia?
Yes I was born in Russia and immigrated about 20 years ago.
LoL, she can't even read the study correctly. 😂
If you're this committed to your brand you'll never truly enjoy your life. This lady is under the effects of Stockholm syndrome. Her jailer is the dollar. If you ask her she will tell you she loves it.
This is an oddly short video? Is there a part 2?
