#decisionmakers — Public Fediverse posts

#DigitalUnderstanding 💭 Many political #decisionmakers see #digitalisation primarily as a #technical issue rather than a #transformation.

Too Much #Strategy 🚧 In #politicalprojects, endless #strategypapers are produced, while practical #implementation falls by the wayside.

#Fear of #Change ⚠️ #Digitalisation means #deeptransformation and #lossofcontrol, which is why political institutions are often reluctant to take bold steps.

"A huge amount of the economy is driven by people who are, simply put, highly suggestible. That is to say that it is very, very easy to get them excited and willing to spend money."

Seven simple questions for #DecisionMakers:

1️⃣ How big? How much? How many?
2️⃣ Compared to what?
3️⃣ Why not a rate?
4️⃣ Per what? The diabolical denominator.
5️⃣ How were things defined, counted or measured?
6️⃣ What was taken into account (what was controlled for)?
7️⃣ What else should have been taken into account (controlled for)?

Declining integrity standards a national problem

"Politicians, whatever their persuasion, are reluctant to see themselves exposed to investigation, to the identification of failings."

"In an exclusive in-depth interview with 7.30, Mr Redlich explained why the reforms he proposed to strengthen the agency are vital to upholding integrity in the state. Mr Redlich's investigations brought the dark underbelly of decision-makers and those in power out of the shadows."

"He and other anti-corruption commissioners have identified the hollowing out and marginalisation of the public service and the rise of a shadow workforce of political advisors."

"Robert Redlich has expressed his disappointment about reforms not passing in parliament." He "says raising the bar for public hearings has weakened IBAC
Integrity standards have deteriorated in several states..."

"The change would allow probes into grey-level corruption that may not be illegal but still represent serious misconduct."

With #parentsrights, #Iowa giveth and taketh away.

The #Iowa Legislature and #Fascist #Republican #Governor #KimReynolds cannot seem to make up their minds whether they #support #parentalrights or are against #Mom and #Dad being the #decisionmakers when it comes to their #children’s #wellbeing.

#ArtificialIntelligence has emerged as a critical driver of #innovation, #efficiency, and growth for businesses that strive to stay ahead of the curve. However, incorporating #AI into business operations presents a unique set of ethical implications and practical challenges that #DecisionMakers must consider, such as: addressing #bias in AI algorithms; ensuring #DataPrivacy and protection; and implementing #transparency and #accountability. #Ethics #RiskManagement

@funnymonkey @adrianh Does anyone else ever form a mental image of corporate decision makers with their fingers in their ears singing, « La lalala La, I can’t hear you! » when being informed about social risks or other ideas that can come back to bite them (and us!) later? Only me then? Okay. Probably nothing to worry about then. #RiskyBusiness #BusinessRisk #DecisionMakers

Time for #PaperOfTheWeek #CalendarWeek3 - This paper pushes to re-think ways of transferring #science to #DecisionMakers and #society 📣

Common myths
➡️ Facts change minds
➡️ Scientific literacy is the answer
➡️ To change social behavior, change individual minds
➡️ Big, broad impact is best

Some possible alternatives in line with more recent behavioral science are suggested.
My personal take-away: think of the human as part of a social web rather than an individual!

Let me introduce myself:

I'm a #wildlife #ecologist, lover of #macroecology & #invasionecology.
I'm interested in #sciencepolicy work & how scientific evidence can be translated & delivered to #decisionmakers & relevant #stakeholder . I'm also very interested in #scicom / #sciencecommunication .

I lead a synthesis centre, a small funding agency.

Expect from me here Informationen on biodiversity related issues, calls for funding opportunities, distribution of #jobs & some #music stuff.

“This imperative prompts organizations to focus on the weakest link in the chain of their success — themselves. It challenges thinking and action at the same time because it recognizes uncertainty is a repository for ‘hope’ — for opportunity.”

I originally expected #primacy, #ConfirmationBias and #overconfidence to clearly emerge in our procedure and in our sample. I guess #replication is hard. On the other hand, one may argue that the original effects are typically shown using more artificial tasks and novice #decisionmakers. It could be that experts in more realistic tasks within their domain think more carefully and thus mostly avoid the biases (i.e. #NaturalisticDecisionMaking). (3/4)
