Episode Synopsis

Today we discuss ways to overcome the polarization that’s everywhere in our society, and sometimes is a destructive, wasteful element in the workplace. Our guest, David Livermore, is an expert on how people from different cultures can bridge the gap and find ways to talk and work together. He shares insights from his interesting and instructive book: Digital, Diverse & Divided: How to Talk to Racists, Compete with Robots, and Overcome Polarization. David describes “culturally intelligent problem-solving,” a process to help working teams get past their differences and work together to find solutions. He shares tips for moving beyond some of the big differences between us, like origin, race, gender, faith and politics. And he talks about how people are really more alike than you may think.
