Jumia Books Good Judgment: Making Better Business Decisions with the Science of Human Personality  by Richard Davis (Author)

"Good Judgment: Making Better Business Decisions with the Science of Human Personality" by Richard Davis explores the critical link between understanding human personality and making sound business decisions. Davis introduces the concept of "perceptivity," or the ability to accurately read and predict others' personalities and behaviors, as key to improving leadership, hiring, team building, and managing relationships effectively.

The book presents a practical "Personality Blueprint," based on the Big Five personality traits, to decode people's core characteristics beyond momentary emotions or behaviors. Davis offers actionable strategies for building rapport, asking insightful questions, and recognizing consistent traits to gain deep insights into colleagues, partners, and candidates. Through mastering perceptivity, readers can improve communication, negotiation, and leadership by making precise judgments about people's strengths, weaknesses, and motivations.
