Better, Not Perfect | Max H. Bazerman | EAGxBoston 22

This presentation is based on Max Bazerman’s book by the same name as the title of the talk (Harper Business, 2020): Every day, you make hundreds of decisions. They’re largely personal, but these choices have an ethical component as well; you value certain principles and ends over others. Better, Not Perfect provides a prescriptive roadmap on how to maximize the pleasure and minimize pain that you create. Melding philosophy and psychology, participants will leave this session with an audit of how they can achieve their maximum sustainable level of goodness. View the original talk and video here. Effective Altruism is a social movement dedicated to finding ways to do the most good possible, whether through charitable donations, career choices, or volunteer projects. EA Global conferences are gatherings for EAs to meet.
