Every Decision Is A Forecast

In today’s environment of unpredictability, organizational success hinges on the quality of decisions. Yet most leaders are never trained to think in terms of likelihood, uncertainty, and evolving information.

The real challenge isn’t decision-making, it’s judgment: the ability to think clearly when the future is unclear, challenge assumptions, and continuously update thinking as new information emerges.

That’s why The Kingbridge Centre has partnered with Good Judgment Inc. to bring Every Decision Is a Forecast to leadership teams, a hands-on program grounded in Superforecasting, a discipline proven to outperform traditional analysis and intelligence forecasting.

Every Decision Is A Forecast

A practical, research-backed program from Good Judgment Inc and The Kingbridge Centre that helps leaders make clearer, faster, better decisions when the stakes are high.

Co-founded by Professor Philip E. Tetlock, Good Judgment Inc is the official home of Superforecasting®. Methods were validated in a four-year US government research tournament. Trusted by Fortune 500 firms, governments, and universities.

What Is the Cost of a Bad Decision?

When leaders misjudge the future, the costs can be staggering. History is replete with examples, from economists’ failure to foresee the stock market crash of 1929 to JFK’s Bay of Pigs invasion to industry giants dismissing the iPhone as a fad. Decisions made without foresight lead to strategic blind spots, wasted resources, and eroded credibility. This program gives your team a disciplined way to see around the corners and the confidence to act on better signals.

In the early 1980s, AT&T turned to McKinsey & Company to forecast the future of the mobile phone market. McKinsey predicted a modest 900,000 US subscribers by the year 2000.

The reality? Over 109 million Americans were using mobile phones by 2000, a colossal misjudgment that illustrates the difficulty of forecasting disruptive technologies. AT&T, relying on this flawed analysis, delayed its entry into mobile, ultimately spending $12.6 billion to acquire McCaw Cellular just to stay competitive.

The Forecast
McKinsey projected mobile phones would remain a niche market with only 900,000 subscribers by 2000.

The Reality
By 2000, mobile phone users in the US exceeded 109 million.

The Consequences
AT&T, slow to invest, lost its early-mover advantage and had to buy its way back into the market.

In today’s climate of unpredictability, is your organization equipped to make better decisions?

A Campus Designed for deep thinking and transformation

The Kingbridge Experience

Kingbridge is not a traditional venue,it is a purpose-built leadership campus.
• Biophilic design enhances clarity and creativity

• Environment optimized for focus, cognition, and alignment

Testimonials

The Kingbridge Experience

The Kingbridge Centre’s biophilic design of the space is intentionally created to prime the mind for peak learning, deepen engagement, and enhance focus. Participants work through real-time decision challenges using an experiential learning model developed in partnership with Good Judgment Inc. Insights are applied immediately and reinforced through reflection and recalibration. While most leadership development programs focus on content and conversation, few address the physiological and neurocognitive conditions essential for sustained attention, sharp decision-making, and collaborative thinking. To address this gap and make the experience more robust, we have embedded science-backed solutions that prepare both mind and body for peak performance, elevating the entire learning experience.
