Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl dives into the dangers of overconfidence, especially among experts. Building on the previous episode, he explores how the gap between knowing and doing can lead to costly mistakes. Overconfidence, Carl suggests, is a common issue for experts who begin to rely too much on their knowledge and forget the importance of maintaining a beginner’s mindset. Through thought-provoking insights, Carl reminds us that while expertise is valuable, the real risk comes when experts lose the humility to keep learning and adapting.Want more from Carl?
