This episode started with the deceptively simple question, “At what level in your organization do people begin to feel and act as if they are valued more for their judgment than for their technical expertise?” We applied that question to our own experience in fire departments, but it’s an interesting question for any organization. And that’s just the jumping off point for a discussion on the nature of judgment, what experience has to do with it, and the other ways you can build and strengthen your judgment.
