Listen "Why the Safe Choices Stifle Innovation"
Episode Synopsis
Greg Twemlow argues that traditional assessment methods in hiring and education prioritise safe, predictable candidates over innovative thinkers, which hinders progress.

BAA uses comparative judgement and dynamic ranking to evaluate how people apply knowledge and make strategic decisions, moving away from rote memorisation and static evaluations.

Twemlow contends that this shift towards valuing adaptability over mere predictability is essential for future success on individual, corporate, and national levels. Read the article.
