Listen "Hidden Events Work (Part 2)"
Episode Synopsis
This is an uncomfortable episode on hidden events with a discussion on why people are resistant when faced with uncomfortable topics, and why engaging in ‘opinionated persistence' can be both beneficial and problematic. As we explore arrogance in thinking and what Ron calls ‘the fallacy of centrality,’ the uncomfortable topics we touch on include child sexual abuse and UFOs. We explore how to manage some of these tensions and reference Roger Martin’s ‘knowledge funnel’ where people move from complex mystery through heuristics to simple algorithms. New episodes releasing every Wednesday at 10am EST
