It can be messy and overwhelming to figure out how to solve thorny problems. Where do you start? How do you know where to look for information and evaluate its quality and bias? How can you feel confident that you are making a careful and thoroughly researched decision?
Whether you are deciding between colleges, navigating a career decision, helping your aging parents find the right housing, or expanding your business, Problem Solved will show you how to use the powerful AREA Method to make complex personal and professional decisions with confidence and conviction.
Einhorn’s AREA Method coaches you to make smarter, better decisions because it
recognizes that research is a fundamental part of decision making and breaks down the process into a series of easy-to-follow steps; solves for problematic mental shortcuts such as bias, judgment, and assumptions; builds in strategic stops that help you chunk your learning, stay focused, and make your work work for you; and provides a flexible and repeatable process that acts as a feedback loop.

Our decisions are expressions of who we are and how we move through the world. Rarely, though, do we examine our decisions or even look inward to consider the psychology of our decision-making. Instead, we often make decisions based on what we call instinct—which relies on cognitive bias, false assumptions, mis-remembering, and mental mistakes. Truthfully, we don’t see the world as it is; we see it as we are.
We can develop self-knowledge about our decision-making styles. We can wake ourselves up to how biases cloud our judgment and impede good decision-making―and we can counter bias. From there, we can transform our decision-making habits to make better big decisions alone and together. Problem Solver provides you with tools to identify:
The five basic decision-making approaches, or “Problem Solver Profiles” (PSPs): Adventurer, Detective, Listener, Thinker, and Visionary
Your dominant―and secondary―PSPs
Tools to assess other peoples’ PSPs
Each PSP’s decision-making strengths, blind spots, and biases
How your PSP impacts your outlook on life and your risk appetite
How to use your PSP to maximize your decision strengths
Replete with real-life examples and replicable strategies to apply new decision-making skills for your immediate benefit, Problem Solver will do more than help you look out into a future; it will equip you to move forward, with confidence, into your future.
