Author : Gary Klein

Gary Klein, a leading American cognitive psychologist, and expert in decision-making research is regarded by McKinsey & Company and the American Psychological Association as a pioneer in the field of naturalistic decision-making. He conducted research on members of the United States Marine Corps and fire departments, exploring the role that intuition plays in individual performance. Nobel laureate in economics Daniel Kahneman stated, “Gary Klein is a living example of how useful applied psychology can be when it is done well. Klein is first and mainly a keen observer.”

Key Insights from Sources of Power

  • Expert decision-making often relies on intuition, which is built through extensive experience in recognizing patterns in specific contexts. Klein emphasizes that the ability to make quick, effective decisions often emerges from a deep, tacit knowledge accumulated over time.
  • Klein highlights the role of mental simulations, where experts visualize potential scenarios, helping them prepare for unpredictable situations. This proactive approach to decision-making allows individuals to adapt and respond swiftly in high-pressure environments.
  • The book illustrates that environment and context play crucial roles in shaping expertise and decision-making processes. Understanding the nuances of a particular situation is essential for leveraging one's skills effectively.
