Although it is easy to be cynical about forecasting (as I often am), embedded in all of our decisions are predictions about the future. In the latest episode of Decision Nerds, Paul Richards and I explore the practicalities and pitfalls of making forecasts in highly uncertain environments with Professor Paul Goodwin. We discuss:

– The pros and cons of scenarios analysis.
– How individual forecasts compare those made by groups.
– The Delphi Technique.
– When we should tweak a model
– The lessons from superforecasting.

And much more in-between.
