The Courage to Say "F*** It!"

Routledge Explorations in Environmental Studies

This book explores the role of planning law in balancing the dilemma of resource extraction with the recognition of greenhouse gas emission limits.Naomi Luhde-Thompson explores how planning law, which is one of the strongest forms of environmental regulation in the UK, has failed to incorporate environmental limits into decisions. Environmental limits are broadly understood as the point at which an irreversible change occurs in a system, providing a measure by which to assess development and to test whether or not these limits might be overrun. Combining theoretical perspectives with experiential practice, the book draws upon hydrocarbon extraction to analyse and interrogate the functionality of current decision-making processes elated to planning law and climate change mitigation. It goes on to propose an amended system that expands the foundational value of public interest in planning law, recommending strategies to incorporate environmental limits, in both strategic planning and decisions.Planning Law and Environmental Limits will be of use to lawyers and policymakers, as well as to researchers, academics, and students interested in climate change, planning, and environmental law.

Planning Law and Environmental Limits

This book is an exploration of the reasons, biases, and blind spots that result in people making assumptions and jumping to conclusions during problem-solving. It delves deep into why even experts often make errors in judgment when problem-solving.Through a combination of behavioral science, data science, and real-world examples, this project is aimed at equipping the reader with a deeper understanding and awareness and a practical toolset to allow them to separate speculation from fact and get to the true root cause.The book applies principles of lean thinking, scientific method, and statistical analysis to problem-solving scenarios. By introducing concepts such as attribute agreement analysis, cognitive biases, hypothesis testing, and special cause vs common cause, the book provides the reader with a structure that enables them to navigate complex problems. The narrative is enriched with stories and anecdotes that reinforce the concepts and demonstrate how the tools have been and can be successfully used. In addition, the book demonstrates through some of these stories the negative impact that assumptions have had in various fields ranging from medicine to engineering.Essentially, the book makes rigorous problem-solving methodologies and the application of the scientific method engaging and accessible. The book employs humor, storytelling, and relatable anecdotes to illustrate abstract concepts, making it an effective learning tool for both professionals and general readers. Readers are encouraged to actively challenge their own biases, improving their ability to validate assumptions before acting on them.

This book introduces the subject of artificial intelligence (AI), its structures, uses, application to the artificial neural network, technology applications, and the advantages and disadvantages of its use, including its potential weaknesses and drawbacks. AI, in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems. It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals. Such machines may be called AIs. AI technology is widely used throughout industry, government, and science.Some high-profile applications include advanced web search engines (e.g., Google Search); recommendation systems (used by platforms such as YouTube, Amazon, and Netflix); interacting via human speech (e.g., Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa); autonomous vehicles (e.g., Waymo); generative and creative tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Apple Intelligence, and AI art); and superhuman play and analysis in strategy games (e.g., chess and Go). However, many AI applications are not perceived as AI. It would appear that much of specific AI has filtered into general applications, often without being called AI because once something becomes useful and common enough, it is no longer labelled as AI.The growing use of AI in the 21st century is influencing a societal and economic shift towards increased automation, data-driven decision-making, and the integration of AI systems into various economic and commercial sectors and areas of everyday life. Its impact is felt across job markets, healthcare, government, industry, education, propaganda, and disinformation and deception, whether deliberate or otherwise. This raises questions about the long-term effects, ethical implications, and risks of AI, prompting discussions about regulatory policies to ensure the safety and benefits of the technology.

Bridbord emphasizes the importance of “micro-moments” in leadership to spark significant improvements.

By focusing on well-being through relationship-building, you can create a healthier, more engaged, and more productive team.&nbsp;

Strengthening Connections to Enhance Productivity and Wellness at Work

The Relationship-Driven Leader

How can a particular way of argumenting direct our thinking? How does the formulation of a question influence the answer, producing a bias or an insight? And finally, what effect does public communication have on public behaviour?Psychorhetoric and the Psychology of Thought illustrates the role played by rhetoric and communicative heuristics in the psychology of thinking and decision making, and its effect on many areas of our daily life. It gives voice to a new and unconventional approach to the contemporary debate within the psychology of thought that has wide implications for key behavioural phenomena, including biases, creativity, decision making, and public policy. This innovative work challenges conventional wisdom by proposing that cognitive biases are not inherent flaws in human cognition, but rather outcomes of misleading communication patterns that influence our thinking processes.This unconventional approach to the psychology of thought has significant implications for creativity, decision making, economic behaviour, and public policy development. Essential reading for students and researchers in cognitive psychology, communication studies, and behavioural economics, this volume promises to reshape our understanding of human rationality and the communicative forces that guide it.

365 Insights for Exceptional Leadership

HBR Daily Strategist

This book seeks answers to two basic questions: What are normative rules and how can and should we apply them? It takes a fresh look both at legal reasoning as a process and normative rules as instruments. On the one hand, based on a decision-making model, it suggests a more practical approach to rule application that isn’t limited to interpretation, but includes searching, evaluation and choice. On the other hand, it proposes a more precise structure for normative rules that includes not only their scope and normative consequences, but also their circumstances and purposes. It then goes on to study such features as their open- and mandatoriness as well as their generality, vagueness and ambiguity, and examines how these features impact the rules’ breadth and the discretion they offer in terms of their application. Lastly, it considers how these aspects affect rules’ validity, binding- and effectiveness. Because the application of normative rules requires a basis in evidence, the book also includes a discussion of fact-finding and points to some interesting similarities between the philosophies of law and science.&nbsp;

International Series on Public Policy

This book assesses a range of contemporary scholarly approaches to public policy. Bringing together leading scholars in policy studies, each chapter addresses a different theoretical approach to policy design and implementation, drawn from the fields of political science, economics and behavioral science. These include the advocacy coalition framework, discursive approaches, institutional analysis, punctuated equilibrium theory, and multiple streams approaches. The book examines how these approaches were born, their limitations, and the theoretical and research problems they pose.&nbsp;
This newly revised edition also considers how the field of policy studies has evolved over the last decade, and includes two new chapters examining the narrative policy framework and policy transaction approaches. It concludes with a discussion of fundamental issues of democracy in public policy. It is an essential resource for all those involved in teaching, researching and studying public policy.
