“As the astronauts are tethered to the spaceship [so] they can float out in space, I have to be tethered to something or I will lose my mind. And what I'm tethered to is habit - I have to ground somewhere. So, I ground in my family and habits.” Jeff Leitner is the guy the UN calls when they don’t know what to do. Get it? Now imagine diving into a conversation with this incredible human being! In this podcast, Jeff plunges us into a thoughtful and honest conversation about the purpose and meaning of habits and how we can have great impact with just little daily investments that can improve the quality of your life and those you love.A leading researcher, writer, and speaker on unwritten rules, Jeff is the co-author of See Think Solve: A Simple Way to Tackle Tough Problems and has worked for the UN, U.S. Department of State, NASA, Harvard Medical School, TED, Dalai Lama Center for Peace + Education, and The GRAMMY Foundation, just to name a few.In this episode you'll hear about:Habits that help you recuperate and the importance of doing something to recuperate from -- otherwise it becomes an excess.Habits that improve the quality of your life over time: Like all investments, one small action one day doesn’t amount to much but do this for 20 years and the payoffs could be unimaginable.Habits that create impact in the world requires being who you are and investing in the small things that matter to you. Plus:Having trouble innovating and taking risks in your life? Maybe you can ask yourself: What am I tethered to that can allow me to float in the space of uncertainty?And:Feeling anxious in the face of uncertainty? Breaking your routine might mean you’ve violated a healthy habit, which makes you more anxious on your spacewalk.Until next time!

Jeff Leitner believes that if we want to create a new future together we have to start by uncovering the unwritten rules. Unwritten rules are remarkably powerful, informal suggestions about how we’re expected to behave in social settings. They're the single biggest influence on our daily behaviors, setting the norms for how we interact with each other. Change starts by discovering the unwritten rules all around us. Tune into this episode of the Business Model Sandbox podcast to hear Saul Kaplan and Jeff Leitner explore the evolution of social innovation and how to discover the power of unwritten rules to enable transformation change that matters.

Welcome to a special edition of “What’s Next?” In this episode, you’ll hear Jan Johnson and Jeff Leitner discuss the unwritten rules of social norms at our 2018 global summit in Madrid, Spain. The opinions expressed in What's Next podcasts are not necessarily those of CoreNet Global.

What can modern art museums teach us about commemorating the Holocaust? And why is legislation not enough to stop human trafficking? What are some of the recurring patterns that help us innovate by shifting behaviors, crafting culture, and making systems change? In this episode of FoossaPod, David Colby Reed and Lee-Sean Huang talk with Jeff Leitner to explore these questions and to discuss the importance of looking at norms as a starting point for social innovation. Jeff has worked on social innovation projects in a range of sectors ranging from diplomacy, to healthcare, to education. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/foossa/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/foossa/support

LMS host Michael Meyer sits down with Jeff Leitner following his keynote speech at the LMA Northeast Conference in Philadelphia. Building on the themes of his keynote, he discusses how to spot opportunities to challenge existing norms and push firms' cultures forward.

In the same way that some people might dismantle a washing machine, Jeff dismantles social systems. He describes himself has having a pathology for dismantling social systems. Jeff argues that social norms, the unwritten rules of how people behave, are at the root of addressing complex challenges. We have a rich discussion about how we change social systems by using a scales metaphor. For Jeff and his colleagues, social norms are the key to addressing complex problems. For Jeff and his colleagues, the key to the scale is social norms. They break the scale down into six notes:Actors - people related to the problem. People who have a first or second-degree relationship to the problem.History - all the stories people tell about the problemLimits - formal rules related to a problem.Future - our presumptions about how the problem will unfold.Configuration - how the elements of the problem are arrangedParthood - every problem is part of larger more complex problems.Jeff and his colleagues argue that through these six notes, you can play any song in norms. In their approach, they identify and infuse deviance into systems rather than trying to reduce problems into identifiable projects. Jeff and is team are trying to disrupt how we address a complex problem.He and his team, really struggle with getting people away from inspiration and into the zone of problem-solving. For them, we have an inspiration crisis. They hold the view that most people are stopping short, at Design Thinking and inspiration. He acknowledges that people are doing the best they can with the tools they have been given. He and his team are working to change the story or tell a better story.Jeff has found that often in his work, he is often pushing people to think well beyond where they think they can. He argues that the best thinking happens when you move four dials.Passion - turn it down to low.Focus - turn it low and look for patterns versus details.Presumption - turn it down. Presumption refers to all the assumptions you bring into the work.Agency - you need to believe that you are the only person in the world that can solve this problem.Links relative to the podcast: The Greenhouse Model: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0692888055SDG's in ranked order: http://ghouse.org/2016/06/15/social-stability-model/
