Cult thinking. Groupthink. Black and white thinking. “Loud, vocal thinkers' and how extreme sound bites dominate the modern media landscape thanks to algorithms, painting a ‘majority picture' when most people are not living out those extremes in day-to-day lives.It's quite a time to be alive, and also a time when it's very easy to let the fear of something cloud our ability to judge the reality of a situation fully. Is “Apatheism” a new way forward? I've always been fascinated by people we turn into our saviours and gurus, as well as charismatic authoritarians who sweep in and seduce us in our personal or collective vulnerable times.. That moment we start rationalising and making excuses for a cult leader, where perhaps a couple of years ago, we'd have been dead against that very thing/person we now defend.On Monday, I explore the murky waters of freedom, autonomy, cults and social systems with Professor of Political Science and Constitutional Law, Adam Scott Kunz, who specialises in cults and political philosophy and has worked alongside the famed Dr Janja Lalich, considered a global authority on cults, until her recent retirement.This show is NOT an attack on anyone, your beliefs, your religion, the diet you feel healthiest on or other held views, but a show to see how we can ensure we are “critical thinking” and not just believing we are, and how we can balance beliefs with values with freedom and come together on common overlaps that benefit us all and how we all struggle with freedom and belonging and ‘others'. One thing I know for sure after this conversation is that the best thing is to know we don't know anything for sure. So there you go! I hope you tune into this fascinating exploration… Alexx xWant to learn more about this week's guest?

What makes an organisation toxic, and how can we spot the signs before it's too late? What are the common traits that make seemingly unrelated organisations, ranging from the Catholic Church to corporations, do harm?On this episode, I'm joined once again by one of my favourite guests — Professor Benjamin van Rooij — for a deep dive into the hidden dangers of organisational life.Benjamin and his co-author, Professor Nicholas Lord, are working on a new book (working title) Toxic: Organisations Gone Bad, which explores not just headline-grabbing scandals, but the patterns of behaviour and structures that consistently lead organisations to cause harm.SummaryIn our discussion, we unpack how organisational processes — like silencing, secrecy, and the relentless pursuit of unrealistic goals — can multiply risk.Benjamin explains why organisations, both public and private, can become “toxic” not simply due to bad people or poor oversight, but because of a combination of systemic dynamics and cultural norms that reward silence, over-ambition, and passive harm.We also discuss why the term “toxic” itself is both useful and problematic, and how understanding these dynamics can help leaders make better decisions before disaster strikes; whether it's Facebook's role in spreading misinformation, Wells Fargo's aggressive sales targets, or the normalization of deviance at Chernobyl and Enron, Benjamin helps us trace the common threads that connect seemingly unrelated crises.And, true to form, he doesn't offer simplistic solutions — instead, he gives us tools to ask better questions, challenge dominant narratives, and push for root-cause thinking over box-ticking fixes. Guest Biography Benjamin is Professor in Law and Society and Director of Research at the School of Law at the University of Amsterdam, as well as a Global Professor of Law at the University of California, Irvine.In his academic work, Benjamin specialises in understanding how laws and regulations operate within real-world organisational settings, focusing on compliance, harm, and institutional accountability. He blends criminology, behavioural science, and legal studies to explore why people and institutions obey (or disobey) rules, and what systems best support ethical behaviour.  Previous appearancesOn COVID Compliance

Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people in which the desire for harmony or conformity Cohesiveness, or the desire for cohesiveness, in a group may produce a tendency among its members to agree at all costs. This causes the group to minimize conflict and reach a consensus decision without critical evaluation. - wikipediaThe Resource: "Two Cheers for Anarchism" by James C.

I'm back. Because silence isn't an option right now. In this episode, I share how graduate study / critical inquiry into leadership and social psychology is helping me make sense of an upside-down world. Groupthink, aka hive mind, isn't just a 'culty' thing. Conformity happens everywhere along the political spectrum. I speak to how unspoken "display rules" keep us from speaking up, then make the argument that Democratic leaders in Washington desperately need to ditch cultural etiquette in order to demand accountability. I also share J. W. Brehm's theory of reactance, which can help us to better understand friends and family members on the MAGA/MAHA right who continue to double down on misinformation. Bombarding them with actual facts will likely backfire, and I tell you why. Lastly, and most importantly, I talk about pluralistic ignorance - what it is & why understanding it is absolutely essential in the fight against fascism. Self-regulation works great for peace of mind, but it can operate like a sort of pathology when it keeps us from protecting one another and demanding justice.Referenced in this episode:The Social Animal, by Elliot AronsonInfluence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert CialdiniWhat is Group Think?

We have induced this problem. We have to look at our poisoned food supply. These engineered addictive food chemicals that are added, the role of pesticides, how we're changing the microbiome, throwing antibiotics loosely at people.

This week we speak with Wenyuan Wu, Executive Director of the Californians for Equal Rights Foundation. Wenyuan shares her journey coming to advocate for and defend students (as young as first graders!) and late-stage career professionals alike from the ravages of illiberal cancel culture that have trampled on free speech rights across large swathes of American society in the last decade. Through her compelling stories, we see first-hand that no one is safe when free speech isn't respected or protected; but also, that there are many allies out there who can help you find your voice to stand up and speak out to reclaim your voice and rights. She also shares strategies for effective communication when pushing back against prevailing narratives and groupthink, as well as the importance of never giving up fighting for what you believe in, and making sure our constitutional rights remain properly grounded by deeper morals and ideals.

It was a quiet moment in a Nokia conference room that would eventually cost $100 billion. An engineer stood nervously, holding a prototype of a full touchscreen phone. The response from management? “Interesting, but that's not how phones work.” This dismissal highlighted the absence of the groupthink factor—a unified vision that could have driven innovation. […]

This week on Sinica, I welcome back Michael Cerny — formerly of the Carter Center and now a Ph.D. student at Harvard — and Rory Truex of Princeton University to discuss a new working paper they've co-authored. They undertook a large-scale survey of foreign policy professionals at U.S. think tanks to ascertain whether there is a "consensus" on China policy, as is often claimed, and whether people working in think tanks feel pressure to take on more "hawkish" positions on China policy.

Felicia Shakiba, CEO at CPO PLAYBOOK, and Podcast Host, has also led several international HR teams as the Fractional Chief People Officer for clients in industries such as fintech, biotech, ad tech, and more. Felicia discusses today's most pressing leadership challenges. Felicia shares insights on leadership in a rapidly evolving landscape influenced by AI, the importance of executive coaching, and the critical role of culture in driving engagement and performance.  Through her experiences with diverse organizations, Felicia explores the intricacies of fostering unified and agile teams, especially in hybrid settings. She also delves into aligning people strategy with business objectives, and the future of learning and development. Felicia's candid take on bridging gaps between HR policies and frontline needs, building flexible and engaging company cultures, and maintaining authenticity offers valuable lessons for leaders at all levels. She also highlights the significance of personalized growth paths, employee engagement, and professional development in ensuring that teams stay motivated and connected.   Key Takeaways [05:25] Felicia explains how AI is changing L&D by converting static content into interactive learning modules, offering immediate feedback, and providing real-time data insights. She notes that while AI enhances learning efficiency, it lacks the ability to interpret subtle cues like body language and emotions, which are crucial in executive coaching. [08:07] According to Felicia, HR's top-down approach often feels out of touch with frontline managers' immediate needs. She believes HR should partner with managers to create relevant programs, making it clear that HR's role is to support and listen to those directly leading teams. [09:42] Felicia emphasizes that general training is useful for foundational learning but becomes ineffective for leaders seeking to grow specific skills. She customizes her coaching to focus on three to four key competencies, helping leaders navigate complex decisions and preparing them for future responsibilities. [19:03] Felicia advocates for using engagement data to inform decisions about work models, rather than guessing. She explains that high engagement scores can validate remote work, while low scores may indicate the need for in-person strategies to boost team cohesion and satisfaction. [23:40] Felicia notes that side hustles are often a response to stagnant growth opportunities within organizations. To retain talent, she suggests companies provide transparent career paths and actively support professional development, which can lead to higher engagement and loyalty. [31:19] Felicia explains that leaders pursuing cultural transformation often want to eliminate silos, improve communication, and inspire innovation. She advises that a successful transformation should align culture with strategic goals, ensuring employees feel empowered and connected to the mission. [36:30] Felicia shares research suggesting that diversity can enhance financial performance and prevent groupthink, though causation is difficult to prove. She emphasizes that diversity in gender, race, and expertise fosters fresh perspectives, contributing to long-term success and adaptability. [44:29] And remember, “It's not all about talent. It's about dependability, consistency, and being able to improve. If you work hard and you're coachable and you understand what you need to do, you can improve." - Bill Belichick   Quotable Quotes “True coaching requires understanding beyond data; it's both scientific and artful.”  “Building a strong company culture across remote teams is about creating virtual ‘water cooler' moments that keep people connected.”  “HR should serve as a support to managers, not a barrier; their role is to help create programs that managers actually need.”  “People are drawn to innovative cultures; they'll stay if they feel they're growing and valued.” “Cultural transformation is more than values on paper; it's about shifting how people connect, communicate, and work together.” “Diversity isn't just about representation; it's about preventing groupthink and driving innovation.”  “People need personalized development, especially leaders, who have unique competencies and challenges to address.”  “It's not just about moving up; it's about building skill paths that align with both individual and organizational goals.”    Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

In this episode of the Owaken Podcast, Lukis Mac and Hellè Weston delve why we experience negative self-talk, and introduce the phenomena known as Wetiko, discussing its psychological and spiritual impacts on individuals and society. They explore how awareness of this phenomenon can enable people to take conscious control over their thoughts, emotions, and actions. Sharing personal experiences with psychedelics, Owaken Breathwork, meditation, and self-reflection, they discuss overcoming habits of self-harm and self-destruction. They highlight the collective implications of negative thinking particularly in the context of media and social influence, and offer practical tools and practices, including Byron Katie's four questions, for breaking free from this pervasive influence. The episode aims to inspire and empower listeners to take control of their mental and emotional well-being.

John Ramsey knows a lot about culty thinking within police investigations. He experienced it firsthand after his daughter, JonBenét Ramsey, was murdered in 1996. JonBenét was the six-year-old beauty queen found strangled and beaten to death in her Boulder, CO home. Despite DNA evidence pointing to an unknown male intruder, John and his family were the prime suspects for years, and they weren't officially exonerated until 2008. The inexperienced Boulder police department bungled this investigation from day one, but their tunnel-vision and group-think when it came to suspects might really be what thwarted justice. JonBenét's case remains unsolved to this day.  John Ramsey is here to discuss how culty mindsets and a lack of critical thinking can hamper police investigations. We get into the way his daughter's case was mishandled, how the police turned a blind eye to evidence that didn't fit the narrative, and how modern technology might finally solve this little girl's murder.  Please note that what happened to JonBenét is truly horrifying.

Episode #94 In this episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, I sit down with Sean Bw Parker to dive into the complex world of cultural theory, exploring how universities shape societal values, and how groupthink and cancel culture have evolved. We discuss the role of feminism today, shifts in the political landscape, and why individualism and freedom of expression are crucial. We also touch on justice reform, the importance of truth in society, and the unique challenges young people face in navigating these issues. Throughout, we emphasize the need for open dialogue and the courage to speak one's truth in an increasingly polarized world. With over eight books, six albums, and a TEDx talk to his name, Sean's work spans cultural theory, art, media critique, and justice reform. For ten years, he lived in Istanbul, immersing himself in the music and culture scene, where he wrote for Time Out Istanbul and Louder Than War and taught English and cultural studies. Sean brings a centrist libertarian perspective, often tackling controversial topics like cancel culture, media, justice reform, and the nuances within progressive ideologies. His latest book, A Delicate Balance of Reason – Adventures In The Culture Wars, explores these issues in depth and was released this May, with an Audible version coming soon. Sean's thoughtful approach and diverse experiences make him the perfect guest for an eye-opening discussion today. Takeaways Cultural theory analyzes societal narratives beyond individual stories. Universities often promote a left-leaning agenda that influences students. Groupthink can lead to cancel culture and suppression of dissenting voices. Feminism is divided on issues related to gender identity and women's rights. The political landscape is shifting towards populism and individualism. Art and creativity are essential for expressing individual perspectives. Truth and honesty are crucial in navigating societal challenges. Justice reform is needed to address miscarriages of justice. The younger generation is malleable and needs guidance in critical thinking. Living with an awakened heart means embracing truth and individuality.

The primary goal of most media sources is to make money by pushing a political agenda and influencing the psychology of those who ingest the content. In order to achieve their goals, people use data, misinformation, and deliberate disinformation as weapons, creating what is often called Infowar. This can lead to groupthink, which causes public fear, doubt, and cognitive bias. False stories are exaggerated to make more money from advertising, influence people's beliefs, or disrupt democratic institutions, as was seen in the 2016 election cycle. To discover how to build resiliency against disinformation and groupthink, Harvesting Happiness Podcast host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with cognitive scientist and CIRCE researcher Dr. Stephan Lewandowsky. Stephan shares his research on how alternative facts gain acceptance, how technology and Infowars can undermine the democratic process, and tips on discerning fact from fiction when consuming media.

What happens when medical groupthink trumps truth? From opioids to peanut allergies, the experts have gotten it wrong time and again—with devastating consequences for public health. Trust in the medical profession has plummeted, driven by decades of rigid conformity and mistaken recommendations. On The Kevin Roberts Show, Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon and professor at Johns Hopkins, dives into the eye-opening revelations from his new book, Blind Spots. He exposes how medical groupthink, from the opioid crisis to misguided nutritional advice, has caused public harm—and what we can do to restore trust and integrity in healthcare. Dr. “Marty” Makary is a Johns Hopkins professor and NYT bestselling author. His newest book, BLIND SPOTS looks at the latest scientific research on topic that we are not talking about (that we need to talk about): ▶ The Microbiome ▶ Hormone Replacement Therapy ▶ The Peanut Allergy Epidemic ▶ Eggs (& Food) ▶ Blood tests not being ordered everyone needs ▶ Childbirth ▶ Cancer Prevention ▶ Marijuana ▶ The Culture of Medicine ▶ Medical Dogma Dr. Makary has been a visiting professor at over 25 medical schools, has published over 250 scientific peer-reviewed articles, and has written for the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and the Washington Post. A public health researcher, Dr. Makary served in leadership at the World Health Organization and is a member of the National Academy of Medicine. Dr. Makary is the recipient of the 2020 Business Book of the Year Award for his book, The Price We Pay, about the grassroots movement to lower healthcare costs through greater medical transparency. He currently leads the Evidence-based Medicine Public Policy Research Group at Johns Hopkins and is director of The Re-design of Healthcare Project, a national effort to make health care more reliable and affordable, especially for vulnerable populations. His research focuses on the appropriateness of medical care, administrative waste, and the impact of health recommendations on society. Dr. Makary is the recipient of the Nobility in Science Award from the National Pancreas Foundation and numerous teaching awards. His newest book, Blind Spots, details how to live healthy by separating medical dogma from evidence-based science.

This episode is brought to you by Momentous, Lifeforce, and Lumebox.   We are spending more on healthcare than ever before, yet our population is sicker than ever. The healthcare system is flawed, and the focus on true health seems misplaced within the traditional system. What's at the root of this broken system and the advice being given to the public? Today's guest is here to share his expertise on the healthcare system and highlight its Blind Spots. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Marty Makary to discuss how decisions in healthcare are often made by a small, centralized group based on dogma rather than actual scientific evidence. Dr. Makary explains how this groupthink mentality has led to a reluctance to consider alternative opinions and a fear among physicians of being labeled if they criticize these decisions. He provides examples of how such decisions have resulted in poor outcomes and eroded public trust. Dr. Makary emphasizes that humility and a willingness to learn beyond what was taught in medical school are crucial for focusing on science and providing the best guidance for patients. Dr. Marty Makary is a renowned surgeon, professor, and author recognized for his contributions to public health, healthcare innovation, and patient safety. He serves as a professor of Surgery and Health Policy at Johns Hopkins University, where he has led initiatives to improve the quality of healthcare delivery. He is known for his research and advocacy on issues such as medical transparency, over-treatment, and the use of video technology to improve patient care.
