About this episode
Every time you buy a stock, you tell yourself a story about why it's going to work. But what if that story is the most dangerous thing in your portfolio? And what if the same behavioral blind spots that trip up individual investors are also quietly undermining the companies you're betting on? Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Harvard-trained behavioral scientist Julia Dhar, author of How Change Really Works, about why 60 to 75 percent of corporate transformations fail, how to spot false alignment in a leadership team, and the simple framework that separates companies worth owning from ones that just sound good on an earnings call.
