Action bias is a defining quality of many high achievers I’ve met. They detest “philosophizing” - lengthy meetings, PowerPoint decks, strategy consultants who indulge in both. They like learning by doing. In most cases, this bias a powerful asset - it helps get stuff done. With its sheer output, this approach easily beats its polar opposite, talking and not doing much. Action bias has this noble humility: practitioners don’t pretend to know what customers want; by launching things, they learn from them. Then they double down on what works.
