Baba Shiv: Sometimes it's good to give up the driver's seat

The speaker shares a personal story about his wife's cancer diagnosis and the overwhelming decisions they faced. He questions the adage of being in control during decision-making and explores contexts where taking a passenger's seat might be beneficial. A study is described where participants solve puzzles after consuming tea, with results showing that those not in control (passengers) perform better. The concept of INCA (Immediate, Negative, Concrete feedback with Agency) is introduced, explaining why passengers might achieve better outcomes. The talk concludes with a reflection on the peace of mind gained by letting experts take control during his wife's treatment.
