The Medal honors Ramsey, who introduced decision theory, where probability, or degree of belief, was made operationally meaningful as willingness to act. This year’s awardee found this broadly applicable. He will talk about his career research, manifested in scholarly articles; his work in practice, exemplified by consulting and applied articles for business and government audiences; and his teaching, exemplified by cases and technical notes for students, articles on teaching effectiveness, and building a teaching team. We’ll move into a discussion of the future of Decision Analysis, including what kind of person and record will receive the medal 30 years from now.
