We hear it all the time: “I’m a data-driven leader.”
But what if that’s just a myth?
In this episode of Smidgen of Proof, Christopher Donaleski breaks down the illusion of objectivity in leadership and explores the real force behind high-stakes decisions: how we validate what’s true, not just what’s measurable.
From executive boardrooms to team huddles, we look at:
Why even the most analytical leaders still use emotional filters
How data can become a delay tactic instead of a decision driver
The difference between data literacy and decision maturity
A story of two executives who looked at the same numbers, and saw completely different paths
If you’re serious about improving how you lead, decide, and influence others, this one’s for you.
It’s not about having more data. It’s about having the right framework to use it.
Follow, rate, and share the show with leaders who want to make better decisions, not just data-driven ones.
