Description
Senior leaders deal with a constant stream of data - dashboards, vendor research, analyst reports, proposals backed by studies. The problem isn't a lack of information. It's knowing what that information actually proves.
This course teachesempirical literacy : the ability to judge whether a claim is supported by evidence, and how strong that evidence is. It's a skill rarely taught in business schools, but one that can meaningfully improve the quality of your decisions.
The course covers three foundational principles of scientific reasoning (correlation, sampling, and what I call "missing fails" - with practical questions to ask whenever you encounter a claim that needs scrutiny.
You'll then apply those principles to three situations that come up constantly in senior roles: evaluating vendor sales pitches, interrogating AI-generated recommendations, and reading data dashboards. For each one, you'll follow a four-step process - identify the claims, find the relevant principles, interrogate, evaluate - with concrete examples of what strong evidence looks like versus what's just well-packaged noise.
By the end of this course, you'll be able to
✨ Explain what makes something evidence, rather than just data or a compelling story
✨ Apply three core principles of scientific reasoning to real business decisions
✨ Ask the right questions when a salesperson, a colleague, or an AI tool is making a claim
✨ Know what a good answer looks like - and recognize when you're not getting one
The course includes a practical quick-reference guide with interrogation questions and answer guides you can use immediately.
This is an introductory course. It's designed for busy leaders who want a working foundation in evidence-based thinking - not a statistics course, and not a philosophy seminar. The goal is a set of skills you can start using in your next meeting.
Who this course is for
⭐ Leaders in organizations who make high-stakes decisions and need to maximize the chances that those decisions will come out well.
⭐ Anyone looking to increase their critical thinking skills to evaluate sales claims, research findings, or your own information.
