TLP472: Embracing Uncertainty with Dr. Margaret Heffernan

Dr. Margaret Heffernan has written six books including "Willful Blindness: Why We Ignore the Obvious at Our Peril" and "Uncharted: How to Navigate the Future," both widely recognized as top business books. Dr. Heffernan returns to the Leadership Podcast with insights from her new book "Embracing Uncertainty: How writers, musicians and artists thrive in an unpredictable world." She challenges conventional wisdom on how we think about decision-making in uncertain times. She reveals why leaders need to step away from predictive algorithms and reclaim their human capacity for intuition.  She discusses the difference between healthy uncertainty and harmful vagueness, sharing practical techniques for leaders who want to make better decisions without drowning in endless analysis. She reveals why agenda-free meetings often produce better results than structured ones, and how silence can be more powerful than speaking. Through personal examples, Dr. Heffernan demonstrates how apparent failures can become unexpected successes when we learn to sit with uncertainty rather than rush to conclusions.  This episode provides actionable insights for leaders who want to navigate uncertainty with confidence, make decisions with incomplete information, and create space for the unexpected insights that drive breakthrough thinking. You can find episode 472 wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube |   Key Takeaways [03:32] Dr. Heffernan reveals what's not in her public bio: she's been trying to grow vegetables for about 10 years and is still absolutely terrible at it, and she's currently learning Italian, which is a deeply humbling experience. [04:53] Dr. Heffernan explains that leaders can reclaim intuition for better decision-making by absorbing quality information through everyday observations—like walking city streets or eavesdropping on conversations—to "restock their mental kitchen" with rich ingredients that will inform future choices when needed. [10:11] Dr. Heffernan confirms that when you slow down, thoughts bubble to the surface - some mundane like "oh God, I forgot to feed the cat," others valuable like identifying the right person for a job that your brain was processing subconsciously. [11:59] Dr. Heffernan distinguishes between necessary ambiguity and harmful vagueness by explaining that decisions are always ambiguous because they're "hypotheses about the future," but harmful vagueness occurs when leaders don't ask clear questions or establish what decision needs to be made.  [17:09] Dr. Heffernan describes transforming a board she chairs from having overly strict agendas to focusing on "what are the three most important things we need to be talking about right now," explaining she has more often seen time wasted from detailed agendas than loose ones. [20:33] Dr. Heffernan explains that "action is how you search" - you can talk, think, and research forever, but the only way to know if something will work is to start, emphasizing that what really matters is beginning, not necessarily where you start. [23:06] Dr. Heffernan suggests that risk tolerance may actually be lower than ever before, but people's level of anxiety drives them to reduce risk, working with wealthy companies whose "risk aversion is almost tangible" despite having enormous resources. [24:36] Dr. Heffernan acknowledges that artists and musicians must be vulnerable to put themselves out there, but explains that most people she's worked with have high risk tolerance because "if you're going to do something meaningful and worthwhile, probably going to be something you haven't done before." [26:35] Dr. Heffernan shares that her book "Willful Blindness" initially seemed like a failure with only a couple of reviews after six months, but took off after making the Financial Times Business Book Award longlist and continues to have readers over a decade later. [28:53] Dr. Heffernan explains her motivation for writing "Embracing Uncertainty" stems from her belief that "the marginalization of the humanities and the arts, the defunding of the arts" is doing "immense harm" and represents "a gigantic loss, not just to the arts, but to all aspects of life." [32:01] Dr. Heffernan outlines her ideal leadership retreat opening: "sending people out for a walk and coming back to report what they saw," explaining this practice "wandering around stuff" and would reveal amazingly different observations from different people. [33:43] Dr. Heffernan suggests the better instruction for the walking exercise would be "noticed" rather than "saw" because "you could notice in all sorts of different ways," allowing people to focus on hearing, feeling, or thinking differently. [40:57] Dr. Heffernan explains she's become "much less concerned about planning now," leaving more margins for things to go wrong and scheduling less frantically to create "space and time for things to happen." [42:39] Dr. Heffernan describes a transformative experiment where she appointed herself "the listener" in meetings, discovering that when you're not looking for moments to speak, "you actually are listening to the person who's speaking instead of rehearsing in your mind what you're going to say next." [45:48] Dr. Heffernan concludes that leaders should remember "what's uncertain is a whole range of things that are possible" and warns against "demanding too much certainty too fast" because "what's certain is what's known and something you've done before," while innovation requires exploring uncertainty rather than shutting it down. [46:57] And remember...“Uncertainty is a very good thing: it's the beginning of an investigation, and the investigation should never end.” - Tim Crouch Quotable Quotes "Intuition is a very accelerated retrieval of a lot of stuff that's been roaming around in your head. The issue is, how do you make sure that the stuff roaming around in your head is quality stuff." "Action is how you search. You can talk about stuff forever. You can think about stuff forever. You can research stuff forever. But the acid test is, do you start?" "What's uncertain is a whole range of things that are possible. Be careful of demanding too much certainty too fast in too many domains because what's certain is what's known and something you've done before." "If you're desperate to speak, you don't listen. I realized that's what I'd been doing a lot of my life - looking for the moment where I could land my brilliant contribution." "The only way I can know if I can write a book is to write a book. I can think about it forever, but actually, I will never know unless I do it."   These are the books mentioned in this episode   Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

Lost meal demolishes windshield Christine Ortiz, the owner of Oh! Designs Interiors on Stone Street in Cold Spring, was enjoying an average Monday on July 7, but there was nothing average about what happened at 4:15 p.m. as she stepped outside for a walk. "I heard a loud crash and thought something had broken, maybe inside the pub" on the corner, she said. At that same moment, Michelle Kupper was next door, sitting at her desk at the Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub, when she heard what she described as "a loud pop." Kupper saw Ortiz walk by and joined her. "What in the world happened to my car?" Ortiz asked aloud, as they stared at the Subaru parked in a shared driveway. The rear windshield was shattered. "My first thought was that a rock had been thrown," Kupper recalled. "Then I thought maybe the heat made it implode." Kupper peered through the broken glass. She spotted something bright orange. "It's a fish!" Kupper told Ortiz. "What do you mean it's a fish?" Ortiz replied. "Are you kidding me?" To be precise, it was a koi. But how did it end up in the backseat of her Subaru? Talon marks indicated the fish had been taken by a raptor, possibly an eagle or hawk. Ortiz felt it was unlikely to have come from the brackish Hudson River; koi are freshwater fish. "I felt bad; I knew someone was missing a pet," Ortiz said. "That's why I didn't post anything" on social media. The mystery of the Stone Street koi would not be solved by Facebook, Instagram or X. It was a story made for the rumor mill and backyard detectives. Neighbors talked to neighbors. Text messages flew around Cold Spring. Residents shook their heads. All but one, that is. "I heard about it through the grapevine," Garden Street resident Alex Wilcox Cheek said, adding that Teresa Lagerman, who lives across from Oh! Designs, had told him the tale after Ortiz texted her. "It sounded like some Garrison Keillor Lake Wobegon story," Wilcox Cheek said. It also sounded close to home. "I know exactly whose koi that is," he thought. Phil Heffernan, who lives on Church Street and has a koi pond in his backyard, was in California when he received a text from Wilcox Cheek. His pond lies just three blocks due east of where the fish met its end. Wilcox Cheek sent along one of Kupper's photos. Heffernan confirmed it was his koi, and that it had a name: Lucy. In 1953, the previous owner of Heffernan's home had built a 4-foot-deep kiddy pool. In 1990, Heffernan converted it to a fish pond that he keeps well-aerated with "supercharged bubblers" for up to 30 koi. "I always had an aquarium as a kid," he said. Flight Risk July 21, 2024: A fish damaged a Tesla parked in a driveway in Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey, about a mile from Raritan Bay. After the car alarm went off, the owners investigated and found scales and blood on the broken windshield. They suspected the eagles who had a nest in their backyard. July 13, 2021: Building inspectors in Neenah, Wisconsin, found one of their sedans in the city lot on Monday morning with the hood caved in and a carp, probably from Lake Winnebago, lying on the asphalt nearby. Sept. 5, 2016: Lisa Lobree was walking on Labor Day in Fairmont Park in Philadelphia when she was hit in the face by a 5-pound catfish. "I smelled disgusting," said Lobree, who suffered a cut and had some swelling. While he has never seen an eagle near the pond, hawks are common and the week before Lucy was taken he saw a large peregrine falcon in the backyard. Koi prefer the pond bottom, where the water is coolest. But Heffernan said when temperatures surpass 90 degrees - as they did the week Lucy was taken - the water warms and loses oxygen, and the fish surface to gulp air from the atmosphere. "An eagle would not have dropped that fish; they have claws the size of my hands," he said, adding that on that hot afternoon the hawk would have seen "a mat of koi" on the pond's surface. "The hawk's eyes were bigger than his claws and he grabbed the biggest fish he could," Hef...

The Creative Power in Uncertainty with Margaret Heffernan

Ceri speaks with author and former CEO Margaret Heffernan about embracing uncertainty as a creative tool. From her journey through theatre, BBC production, tech leadership, to becoming a bestselling author, she shares how uncertainty isn't something to fear but a space where possibility thrives. Her latest book also explores how artists navigate and flourish in unpredictability and how in uncertainty lies choice, freedom, opportunity, exploration and adventure. KEY TAKEAWAYS Margaret embodies creative flexibility and has in her career, from theatre to BBC producer to tech CEO to acclaimed author, proved creative thinking transcends industries and can lead to unexpected opportunities. Uncertainty contains freedom, choice, and opportunity. If we eliminated it life would turn into a mere to-do list. Artists inherently understand this and demonstrate how to thrive within ambiguity. Heffernan tests ideas by asking: "If I ignore it, will it go away?" The ideas that persist (whether for businesses or books) are the ones worth pursuing, her creative instincts can guide important decisions. For emerging artists, the intrinsic reward of creating meaningful work often outweighs financial stability and many choose creative uncertainty over predictable comfort because the satisfaction exceeds anything else they could do. When faced with rejection or indifference to your ideas, instead of being crushed, consider that you might just need to explain it better. Persistence and refinement are essential creative skills. Perfectionism cripples creativity, experimentation and being willing to try different approaches when stuck can help you as an artist. Success often comes through iteration rather than getting it right the first time. Storytelling is central to communicating complex ideas effectively, Margaret structures her talks and writing around "tentpole stories" that support her arguments, making abstract concepts accessible and memorable. BEST MOMENTS "I'm quite startlingly comfortable with uncertainty. I remember the very last startup I ran, I ended up closing down because I could not find a path to profitability. I just had a real confidence that at some point it would become clear. And at some point it did." "The hard boiled business person is going to say, look at the mess we're in, and you're saying we need more art? Are you out of your mind? The mess that got us here isn't gonna get us out. We need a very profound mindset shift." "In uncertainty lies choice. In uncertainty lies freedom. In uncertainty lies opportunity, exploration, adventure. Most people don't wanna know what they're getting for their birthday." "I use the test: if I ignore the idea, will it go away? The businesses I ended up running were ideas that wouldn't go away and I used pretty much the same test for books." "For all that I was strongly advised not to write Embracing Uncertainty, regardless of how it does, I would've been very unhappy if I'd wimped out." "Instead of getting crushed by indifference, I thought, actually I just need to explain it better. That's actually such a brilliantly inspiring take on taking responsibility for how we're communicating our ideas." "We are not fated to be one thing or another. It's up to us.” "When I talk to people about eliminating uncertainty, I'm only about halfway through the story when they suddenly realise, wow, this is not what we want. This is not what anyone wants in their life."

Heffernan also delves into the benefits that can arise from employee ownership structures, the inherent challenges, whether there is appetite from lawyers and law firms to explore such options, the questions to ask of one's business when implementing such a structure and the practical steps to doing so, whether such structures can and will become mainstream Down Under, and what excites her about the potential future of the business model moving forward.

In 1836, rumors of gold in a muddy river on the west shore of Lake Michigan near modern day Green Bay, Wisconsin, spurred the creation of what would become the City of Kewaunee. The arrival of a railroad in the late 1800s led to increased shipping in the area, and in 1880-81 two long piers were built at the entrance to the harbor. In the years that followed there were a number of reconfigurations of the piers and lighthouses in the harbor. Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse, Wisonsin. (Friends of the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse) Jake Heffernan (Friends of the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse) In late 1930, a car ferry collided with the south pier and badly damaged a small lighthouse tower that stood adjacent to a fog signal building. The damaged pier was repaired and a square brick lighthouse tower was added on the roof of the fog signal building, giving the lighthouse the appearance it has now. The City of Kewaunee was granted ownership of the lighthouse in 2011. Thanks to the assistance of the nonprofit Friends of the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse, much restoration has been carried out in the past decade. The guest in this episode, Jake Heffernan, is the acting president and historian for the Friends of the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse.

However, recently Dr. Kind, Dr. Veit, Dr. Heffernan, and our very own Dr. Helms made this debate into a multidisciplinary academic paper.

Sherry Lee Heffernan, a 57-year-old woman from Landenberg, Pennsylvania, has been handed two consecutive life sentences for the heinous 2021 killing of her elderly father and his longtime girlfriend, authorities announced on Friday. Heffernan was found guilty earlier this year for the murder of 87-year-old John Enders and his live-in girlfriend, 57-year-old Francoise Pitoy, at Enders' beach house in Surf City, New Jersey. The case, which has gripped the community for over two years, saw Heffernan vehemently deny any involvement, claiming she was being framed. However, a grand jury ultimately convicted her of the stabbing and shooting deaths. According to prosecutors, Heffernan's motive stemmed from her father's decision to exclude her from his will and prevent her from selling his house, where the gruesome murders took place. On top of that, Enders cut her and an estranged daughter out of his living will the previous month, a friend said in the police account.  In early March, Heffernan was convicted by a jury of her peers as the double murderer based on evidence that her RV was caught on video driving down the Long Beach Island Bridge on the early morning of Sept. 29, 2021. Next, Heffernan traveled on foot toward her father's home. She carried an orange bag and clothes “too large” for her, and she hopped a backyard fence. Later that day, video captured her as she drove her RV back over the same bridge as before. Heffernan's son reportedly told cops in an Oct. 4, 2021, interview that his mother left home the previous week to visit her father. He allegedly described this as a “midnight dash.” Days later, authorities conducting a welfare check found both victims shot in the mouth and stabbed dozens of times at the home on North 7th Street. Enders was stabbed 51 times and Pitoy 39 times. Neighbors recalled Enders and Pitoy's 19-year-long relationship as a happy and loving one, further underscoring the shock and devastation caused by their tragic deaths. The trial lasted almost four weeks, prosecutors said. Jurors convicted Heffernan of two counts each of murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and unlawful possession of a weapon. Superior Court Judge Kimarie Rahill on Friday ordered Heffernan to serve 63 years and nine months without the possibility of parole for each murder, saying the crime was committed with “extreme depravity.” “This defendant will spend the rest of her life in prison. This is an appropriate sentence and we are hopeful that this brings some measure of closure to the family and friends of John and Francoise,” Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer said in a statement.

Sherry Lee Heffernan, a 57-year-old woman from Landenberg, Pennsylvania, has been handed two consecutive life sentences for the heinous 2021 killing of her elderly father and his longtime girlfriend, authorities announced on Friday. Heffernan was found guilty earlier this year for the murder of 87-year-old John Enders and his live-in girlfriend, 57-year-old Francoise Pitoy, at Enders' beach house in Surf City, New Jersey. The case, which has gripped the community for over two years, saw Heffernan vehemently deny any involvement, claiming she was being framed. However, a grand jury ultimately convicted her of the stabbing and shooting deaths. According to prosecutors, Heffernan's motive stemmed from her father's decision to exclude her from his will and prevent her from selling his house, where the gruesome murders took place. On top of that, Enders cut her and an estranged daughter out of his living will the previous month, a friend said in the police account.  In early March, Heffernan was convicted by a jury of her peers as the double murderer based on evidence that her RV was caught on video driving down the Long Beach Island Bridge on the early morning of Sept. 29, 2021. Next, Heffernan traveled on foot toward her father's home. She carried an orange bag and clothes “too large” for her, and she hopped a backyard fence. Later that day, video captured her as she drove her RV back over the same bridge as before. Heffernan's son reportedly told cops in an Oct. 4, 2021, interview that his mother left home the previous week to visit her father. He allegedly described this as a “midnight dash.” Days later, authorities conducting a welfare check found both victims shot in the mouth and stabbed dozens of times at the home on North 7th Street. Enders was stabbed 51 times and Pitoy 39 times. Neighbors recalled Enders and Pitoy's 19-year-long relationship as a happy and loving one, further underscoring the shock and devastation caused by their tragic deaths. The trial lasted almost four weeks, prosecutors said. Jurors convicted Heffernan of two counts each of murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and unlawful possession of a weapon.

After more than two years of legal proceedings, Sherry Lee Heffernan, 57, has been found guilty by a grand jury of the stabbing and shooting deaths of her father, John "Jack" Enders, 87, and his longtime live-in girlfriend, Francoise "Frenchy" Pitoy, 75. Heffernan, a real estate agent, was charged in October 2021 with the double homicide, which rocked the quiet community. Heffernan, then 55, vehemently claimed innocence as she was escorted out of court in October 2021, asserting, "I am being framed." However, authorities maintained that Heffernan was driven by resentment after being excluded from her father's will and denied the opportunity to sell his house. The prosecution presented evidence indicating Heffernan's involvement, including surveillance footage showing her recreational vehicle (RV) traveling to her father's residence on the night of Sept. 29, 2021. Additionally, her cellphone activity was traced along the route. Furthermore, three footprints matching Heffernan's were discovered in blood-stained areas of the home's kitchen floor. Investigators detailed Heffernan's movements on the night of the murders, describing how she parked her RV nearby and proceeded on foot to her father's home, carrying an orange bag and wearing oversized clothing. According to surveillance footage capturing her crossing the Long Beach Island Bridge, she returned to her RV and left the area. The victims, Pitoy and Enders, were found brutally murdered in their home after Pitoy's daughter raised concerns about their welfare. Enders had been shot in the jaw and stabbed 51 times, according to testimony at Heffernan's nearly four-week trial. Pitoy had also been shot in the jaw at point-blank range and stabbed 39 times. While the victims were found on Oct. 3, 2021, investigators have long said the elderly couple, who had dated for about 15 years, was actually killed several days earlier.  Heffernan's son reportedly informed authorities that she had made a sudden visit to her father's home, which he described as a "midnight dash." A surveillance camera captured her leaving her property in the Winnebago before 1 a.m. on Sept. 29, 2021, and returning about 8 p.m. Prosecutors allege she drove to her father's house, committed the murders, and drove home in that time frame. The surveillance video tracked the Winnebago along the route to and from Enders' home, and Weatherstone said Heffernan's cell phone was tracked along the same route. Following a nearly four-week-long trial, jurors convicted Heffernan on two counts each of murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and unlawful possession of a weapon. She now faces the prospect of life imprisonment, with her sentencing scheduled for May 10. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
