Cognitive Diversity
In investment management, advantage increasingly comes from how teams interpret information, challenge assumptions and make decisions.
IiFE’s Cognitive Diversity programme explores how different perspectives and ways of thinking can strengthen decision making, and gives member firms practical tools to put the research into action.
Evidence informed thinking translated into practical resources for investment organisations.
What is Cognitive Diversity?
Cognitive diversity is the range of perspectives, experiences, expertise and ways of thinking that people bring to decision making.
When teams think too similarly, assumptions can go unchallenged, risks can be missed and alternative ideas overlooked. Harnessed effectively, cognitive diversity can help teams challenge established thinking, integrate different information and make stronger decisions.
