Responding with dignity

I recently attended a leadership lecture at Copenhagen University, and said, "You cannot have imagination free decision making" as it suggests that decision-making and imagination are not independent of each other. I think imagination often plays a role in decision-making, as it allows individuals to envision different scenarios, possibilities, and outcomes related to a decision. However, it's important to note that while imagination can influence decision-making, individuals still have the capacity to make decisions that are not solely dictated by their imagination. The lecturer pushed back with “Decision-making can also be guided by rationality, logic, past experiences, and external factors, depending on the context and the specific decision at hand. So, while imagination can be a valuable tool in the decision-making process, it does not necessarily restrict or eliminate the possibility of free decision-making.” I guess we were both right…
