00:00:00
One of the things that it seems to me is
00:00:02
incredibly important in the way people
00:00:05
make choices
00:00:06
is the feelings and the emotions that
00:00:08
they have.
00:00:10
And feelings and emotions run high often
00:00:12
in these situations. Companies seeking
00:00:15
to take another one over
00:00:17
often are in the grip of
00:00:20
a huge desire to go through with the
00:00:22
deal and
00:00:24
sometimes, not inevitably, but sometimes
00:00:27
embarrassing facts come to light during
00:00:29
the negotiations, for example, and that
00:00:32
disregarded because everybody's so mad
00:00:34
keen to do the deal that they kind of
00:00:37
ignore these inconvenient facts. So,
00:00:38
that's a kind of example of feelings and
00:00:40
beliefs getting in the way. Yeah, do you
00:00:42
think ego has anything to do with that?
00:00:44
Oh, yes. I mean, it's would be it would
00:00:46
be naive not believe that ego doesn't
00:00:50
have part to play. I mean, to be fair
00:00:52
though, I don't think it's true that
00:00:55
it's all driven by ego and that leaders
00:00:58
are all about themselves and they don't
00:01:00
think about the I mean, I've My
00:01:02
experience has been on the contrary that
00:01:05
people running organizations on the
00:01:07
whole are pretty professional about what
00:01:09
they do.
