Daryl Morey appeared on Invest Like the Best to discuss systems thinking in sports and organizational management. Morey referred to Moneyball by Michael Lewis, using it to explain that finding undervalued assets is about discovering them within a team's specific system and structure rather than just spotting isolated undervalued players. To address human decision-making and cognitive bias within his organization, Morey cited Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman, noting that humans struggle with objective decisions and must actively confront their own biases. He also brought up Superforecasting by Philip E. Tetlock and Dan Gardner, mentioning the good judgment project and the use of Breyer scores as effective methods to assess judgment and forecasting accuracy over time across complex operational domains.
