The UPenn / Wharton and Columbia alumni clubs present an interesting an fun way to better decision-making.
We all learned during economics class that people are rational. That we all make rational decisions. But reality tells us otherwise. We are predictably irrational. Our experiences and biases consistently keep fooling us. By understanding how our mind works, we can learn not only to make better decisions, but predict, influence, and facilitate that of others.
And how better to do that than during a game of poker? Because poker is just like business: we have to make a lot of quick decisions under pressure, in a competitive environment, without sufficient information, while managing scarce resources. And we have to adapt our strategy to a constantly changing world.
We're going to enter this world on the afternoon of Saturday, 18 March. And don't worry, if you haven't played poker before. You will learn it during the session
