Overconfidence Bias

Overconfidence Bias, a behavioral economics principle, highlights how individuals tend to have an inflated sense of their own abilities and exhibit overconfidence in their judgments and decision-making. When implementing employee messaging, acknowledging and addressing this bias can be beneficial by presenting information that challenges employees' overconfidence and encourages a more objective and accurate assessment of their capabilities.
