#21 How to make Better Decisions using the Evidence-based Practice w/Rob Briner
<p>We have access to more information than ever. Yet, we still base most of our decisions on guesses, gut feelings, outdated information. Why? Because we do not take our time to gather and understand the evidence behind. The gap between available information and the decisions we take is simply too wide - in our private lives, as well as in organisations. But, if we change that, we will make better informed decisions with better outcomes.</p><p> So, how do you make better decisions? The best way is to start using an evidence-based approach. Evidence-based practice does not mean reading a lot of boring research. That means to take a structured approach to your decision making, use several sources, and critically judge the quality of the information. My guest today, Rob Briner, is a front person in the evidence-based practice movement. He is a professor in organisational psychology at Queen Mary University in London and Scientific Director in the Centre for Evidence-based Management. He will help you make better decisions. </p><p> ROB TALKS ABOUT</p><ul><li>Why we see a big gap between evidence and practice</li><li>A clear guide as to how you make a more informed decision</li><li>Why Google Scholar is your new best friend</li><li>How you can use the evidence-based practice to make better decisions for your organisation </li></ul>

#20 - 6 Sexual Conflicts between Men and Women w/David Buss
<p>Men and women have different sexual desires. And this leads to sexual conflicts. Conflicts, which can create problems in relationships when dating or living together. But why? Evolutionary psychology uses the theory of sexual selection to explain these conflicts. </p><p>My guest today, David Buss, will lay out six sexual conflicts that typically occur between men and women due to our evolutionary traits; why men sometimes mistake a smile for a sexual signal, why women tend to file for more divorces or why men statistically cheat more than women. </p><p>David Buss often appears among the top 50 most influential psychologists ever to live due to his research on the evolutionary psychology of human mating strategies, conflicts between sexes and the evolution of jealousy, to name a few. Listen along to hear how we can use this knowledge to engage in a healthier conversation between partners. </p><p>DAVID TALKS ABOUT</p><ul><li>The theory of sexual selection: Why men and women approach sexual relationships differently</li><li>The six sexual conflicts: what we lie about, why men have a deeper desire for more sexual partners and why we sometimes do bad things to the people we love</li><li>How Tinder reflects modern sexual selection</li></ul>
