Harvard's Judgment Professor: The Curse of Optionality, and the One Habit That Builds Better Judgment
Why do the most credentialed people on earth — the ones who checked every box, Stanford, Goldman, KKR, Harvard Business School — end up making the safest, most probable choices of their lives? In Part 2 of his conversation with Motley Fool's Rachel Warren, Reza Satchu breaks down his three-word framework for spotting real conviction versus hype (authenticity, momentum, inevitability), why capital allocation is the sharpest test of a CEO's judgment, his biggest regret as a founder (waiting too long to fire people), and the "curse of optionality" that keeps talented people from ever committing to anything. He closes with the one small, repeatable habit he wants every investor and founder to build to train their own judgment muscle.

Harvard's Judgment Professor: Why Numbers Don't Make Decisions, People Do
Investors pour over income statements and cash flow trends — but the person deciding what happens to those numbers next matters more, and it's the thing almost nobody knows how to evaluate. Motley Fool's Rachel Warren sits down with Reza Satchu, HBS senior lecturer and six-time company founder, to unpack why judgment — not intellect or data — is the scarcest asset in the age of AI, whether it can actually be taught, and the real story behind walking away from a billion-dollar buyout offer on his student housing company, only to sell it a year later for $1.7 billion.
