Hard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths and Total Nonsense
- Profiting from Evidence-Based Management
By Jeffrey Pfeffer & Robert I Sutton
Harvard Business School Press, 2006
Too many business adages are built on flimsy information. When decisions are based on
dubious knowledge, the consequences can be catastrophic. This book by highly respected
scholars, Jeffrey Pfeffer and Robert Sutton explains how better evidence can be used in
business to generate superior results. Evidence based management enables business
leaders to face the hard facts and act on the best evidence.
Introduction
Business decisions are often based on hope or fear, what others seem to be doing, what
senior leaders have done and believe has worked in the past and strong ideologies. Hard
facts and strong evidence do not seem to back many decisions. It is time that companies
and leaders rooted their decisions in solid evidence to ensure optimal utilization of
resources. The authors relate poor decision practices with a number of examples. Then
they explain how evidence based management can be used profitably.
Poor Decision Practices
Poor decision making practices can be seen across organizations. Take benchmarking.
The approach to benchmarking seems to be fairly casual, with some rare exceptions.
More often than not, companies tend to copy the most obvious, visible and frequently
least important practices. The underlying culture or business philosophy of the company
against which benchmarking is being done is not given enough importance.
Companies tend to repeat what has worked for them in the past. By all means, learning
from experience and mastery through practice can be useful. But this kind of an
approach can backfire when the new situation is different from the past and the lessons
learnt in the past may have been wrong or incomplete in the first place.
Managers also tend to be unduly influenced by deeply held ideologies and beliefs.
Beliefs rooted in ideology or in cultural values are quite sticky. They resist disconfirming
evidence.
Evidence based management
Evidence based management assumes that using deeper, better logic and employing
facts rather than assumptions or guesses leads to better decisions. Such an approach
advocates going by hard facts about what works and what does not. Even when
companies have little data, there are many things, they can do to rely more on evidence
2
and logic and less on guesswork, fear, belief or hope. For example, qualitative data
collected from field trips can be used.
Implementing evidence based management requires a mindset change. Facts and
evidence are great levelers of hierarchy. Resistance to evidence based management
comes when it changes power dynamics, replacing formal authority, reputation and
intuition with data. Another problem is that delivering bad news does not win us friends.
We like to deliver good news because that is .
This assignment focuses on the tenet of conscious leadership, the .docxhowardh5
This assignment focuses on the tenet of conscious leadership, the importance of self-assessment, and reflection. Self-awareness is essential for developing management and leadership skills. Recognizing your own strengths, weaknesses, and values, and understanding emotional intelligence and learning styles can help you to be a more effective leader. Becoming self-aware is an ongoing process requiring introspection. The more often people practice self-reflection, the more opportunities they have to understand their own behaviors and adapt their approaches to working with other people, which can improve both your own and other's abilities to meet their professional goals.
Self-Assessment
For this assignment, you have the opportunity to take a variety of self-assessments to learn more about yourself and identify your assets and weaknesses as a leader. This will assist you in discovering how you can improve your own self-leadership skills. You will be asked to think critically about your results and submit a reflection as directed below. As a starting point, review the resources on conscious capitalism at: http://www.consciouscapitalism.org/. There are several helpful resources, including white papers and speech transcripts, available under the Content tab on the main page of this site. Conduct additional research beyond this website on the principle of conscious leadership.
Refer to the "Self-Assessment Links" resource in Topic Materials and complete each test. Be sure to document the results of each assessment to assist you in completing the reflection portion of the assignment below.
Self-Assessment Reflection
After completing the self-assessments, write a 1,000-1,250 word reflection in which you discuss the following:
1. Explain the characteristics of conscious leadership as defined by Mackey and Sisodia and compare them to the primary characteristics of two or three other leadership theories you have studied.
2. Describe the importance of self-awareness, self-concept, and emotional intelligence and the role they play in enabling effective conscious leadership.
3. Briefly summarize the results of each test you completed. In general, do you believe the results represent who you are as a leader? How will the results inspire you to be a conscious leader? Explain.
4. What insights have you gained about yourself after taking the assessments? How could this knowledge influence your values, attitude towards others, and how you approach new tasks in the workplace?
5. Explain the significance of the self-assessment results in relation to your individual behavior, your behavior within groups, and within organizations. What have you learned about your ability to manage others within the workplace? What have you learned about what it takes to manage yourself or how you respond to the management tactics of others within the workplace?
Include at least four academic references for this assignment to support your analysis and reflection.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

11. Read and discuss2. Managing impact culture
Impact culture: the shared
values, beliefs and norms of an
academic community that
support the production of
(significant and far-reaching)
non-academic impacts based
on excellent research, which
then define the collective
identity of that community and
distinguish the strengths and
foci of one institution from
another
12. Read and discuss2. Managing impact culture
Diagnose your impact culture:
What shared values, beliefs and
norms underpin impact?
Is there a sense of community and
trust around impact? Where and when
do we talk about impact (e.g. part of
our DNA or only in meetings about
research assessments)?
Are we producing significant and far-
reaching impacts based on excellent
research? Lots of impact with limited
research versus a research culture
that rarely considers impact
How would you like to see each change?
14. Read and discuss3. Manage impact generation
Don’t let your impact culture get handed
to you by external agendas - build it on
purpose
Diagnose your current impact culture
Work with opinion leaders, appealling to
intrinsic motivations while making it clear
you take impact seriously
Look long-term (not next assessment
deadline) wherever you can afford to
15. Read and discuss3. Manage impact generation
Build your impact potential
Focus on efficiency to overcome time
barriers without instrumentalising impact

• Research linked researchers and projectsIndirect impacts
• Systematically identify large grants by
former staff
• Research impacts arising from projects
Historic impacts based

• Identify bodies of research that cut across
individual researchers’ work
• Match these to existing/emerging issues
• If necessary fund strategic research (gap fill)
• Make an impact plan
Future impacts
applying a body of
research to an existing
or emerging issue
22. Prioritising impacts
Evidence-based feedback e.g. based on findings
from Reichard et al. (under review)
Manage feedback
Give feedback personally
Encourage non-EIA impacts in context of workload
Long-term focus: an impact for next EIA cycle?
Ideas for rewarding impact:
Workload allocation can be messy for impact
Internal competitions and awards
Website features and press releases
Give good feedback
