The more experienced a person is, the more likely they are to have their own unique “mental model.”
As a result, some common cognitive biases, such as “anchoring” and “functional fixedness,” can affect our ability to solve problems. In French, there is even a specific term called Déformation professionnelle, translated into English as “misinterpretation of professionalism,” which refers to how a person’s professional training can shape their perspective on reality. Similarly, in English there is a term called nerdview, which refers to how organizations often use internal language to describe their products and services to the outside world. By inviting external experts to examine innovation from a third-party perspective, these decision-making errors can be avoided to some extent.
