What if our perspective is what holds us back? What if tremendous success and progress are right in front of us but we are just too bias to notice? What if we could vastly improve performance and reduce stress simply by removing bias?

In our work and lives we constantly spin our wheels, spending considerable money and effort while becoming good friends with both volatility and anxiety. We are told to innovate and work harder, but the truth is we are set-up to fail: The very system we work within is founded on a faulty idea of control. We are just too bias to notice.

Jonathan spent his career investigating control and the biases that prevent us from seeing its fallacy. In Giving Up Control, Jonathan offers a new light, emphasizing how much we want control and providing an understanding of the world as never before. Empowering and surprisingly simple, Jonathan shows that by appreciating our biases and reframing our perspective we literally transform our performance. Everything will be different and everything will finally make sense. Giving Up Control will change our performance forever.

Too often, achieving our desired outcome is elusive. Good intentions and hard work routinely come up short, especially in life’s boldest pursuits. While many think the fix is working even harder, changing strategy, or some new tech wizardry, the truth is that top performance is achieved by simply removing bias. Both apparent and hidden, human biases inhibit progress. Today, modern scientific breakthroughs encompassing our biases are leveraged by the highest achievers to make better decisions and drive more consistent results.

After almost two decades of studying how biases cloud performance, Jonathan shows that their removal liberates success. A powerful solution, Jonathan shares cutting-edge research on the impact of our biases, unveils our most damaging bias traps, and offers a prescriptive model to conquer them. Inspiring and remarkably practical, The Unbiased Advantage is a refreshing look at performance that transforms both our mindset and results.

Our brain misleads us, making us far less in control than we think. Victim to our biases, our decisions and actions are far more emotional response than logical thought. And while some conclude nothing can be done, behavioral finance has for decades been at the forefront of identifying our biases and reaping the benefits of a less emotional approach to research and decision making.

After nearly two decades practicing and teaching the fundamentals of behavioral finance, Jonathan pulls from his background to show us what is behind the movement taking over an industry. One-by-one, Jonathan makes us aware of universal advancements from the field of behavioral finance and offers clear techniques for leveraging this knowledge in any business. Engaging and widely applicable, Lessons From The Field teaches that our biases transcend any one industry and only play an outsized role in our lives if we let them.
