In Decision Leadership: Empowering Others to Make Better Choices (Yale UP, 2022), Don A. Moore and Max H. Bazerman offer a well-researched and compelling corrective to this view. They describe organizations as decision factories in which effective leaders are not lone heroes, but decision architects who design situations and

The problem with most money books is that they are not written by practitioners and avoid hard truths.
