BooksBooks on leadership & judgment

When information is no longer enough.The data is in. Now someone has to make the call.

When information is no longer enough, someone still has to decide. One book is about that moment in the room. The other is about that moment after AI has drafted the answer.

Both books are about consequential judgment and accountability — what happens when leaders decide under pressure, uncertainty, and organizational constraint, and the analysis is finished but someone still has to own the call.

One is about the moment the room turns to you. The other is about what happens to that moment when a machine drafted the answer first.
