Go to any drug store and somewhere you will see the initials Rx. You probably assume it has to do with medicine or prescriptions or something. But why Rx? What do those letters stand for. This episode begins with an explanation. https://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/06/rx-mean-come/ You are not the person you used to be. And you are not the person you will one day become. That's the message from Paul Bloom, psychology professor at the University of Toronto and the Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale. Listen as he reveals what is likely the happiest years of your life, why you are different from everyone else and other fascinating insight into how your mind works to make you who you are. Paul is author of the book Psych: The Story of the Human Mind (https://amzn.to/3k524d5). The future is uncertain. And we tend not to like uncertainty. Yes, the future may be full of opportunity but it can also be full of danger and disappointment. So, let's take a fresh look at uncertainty with Nathan Furr. Nathan is a professor and author of several books on innovation with his latest book titled The Upside of Uncertainty (https://amzn.to/3SbJBZ6). Listen as he explains how to face the unknown in a different way that minimizes the risk and amplifies opportunity.

We all face uncertainty at some point in our lives. But do we embrace it or resist it? Our thoughts about uncertainty and ambiguity shape the actions we take when we are faced with change. If we reframe how we view uncertainty, we can rewrite the story we tell ourselves. “The way we describe something to ourselves and others, shapes how we think, decide and act.” Our guests on this episode are the most delightful husband and wife team, Nathan Furr and Susannah Harmon Furr who have written a fantastic book together, “The Upside of Uncertainty: A Guide to Finding Possibility in the Unknown”. Ironically recording this episode has been plagued with uncertainty. Our first attempt, last summer, was bugged with audio issues, and since then we have faced a number of technical glitches. When we finally got a chance to sit down and re-record an interview with them recently, it unfortunately fell at a time that our own Tim Houlihan was unable to join the conversation due to illness. So Kurt Nelson embraced the uncertainty and flew solo on this interview! We learn from Nathan and Susannah about the types of uncertainty and some of the tools that they have devised to overcome those periods of our lives when everything seems unsure. We know you'll take away a lot from this discussion, and we encourage you to also read their book which is packed full of useful advice.

Our 30th episode since our launch and closing in on 200,000 downloads and listens. THANK YOU. Why does it seem like these are uncertain times? Deb has joined me today to have a lively discussion about uncertainty. Are things as uncertain as they seem? Russia is threatening and saber rattling about nuclear war, and bombing close to a nuclear power plant. Relations with China are strained, and a new disease, Monkey Pox is moving through the U.S. how do we get used to so much change and all if it feels bad. A while back our Deb was reading a book called, The Upside of Uncertainty. It's by a couple like us, Nathan Furr and Susannah Harmon Furr. When she heard about this book, and simultaneously was feeling oh my god, would the world just slow down, she bought it immediately and read it. Because of news,24/7, social media, satellite communication, cell phones. News comes at us from all sides. Is it faster that it was or is that we are so in the know now. Or does it matter?

Welcome to the What's Next! podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week we journey into the unknown with innovation researcher Nathan Furr and entrepreneur Susannah Furr, who navigate us through the fear and stress of uncertainty to find the creative opportunity on the other side. Nathan Furr is a professor of strategy and innovation at INSEAD in Paris and an expert in the fields of innovation and technology strategy. His bestselling books include The Innovator's Method and Innovation Capital. Published regularly in Harvard Business Review, MIT Sloan Management Review, Forbes and Inc., he is an Innosight Fellow, has been nominated for the Thinkers50 Innovation Award, and works with leading companies including Google, Microsoft, Citi, ING, and Philips. Susannah Harmon Furr is an entrepreneur, designer, art historian, and contrarian. Her clothing line was inspired by her research into the intricate embroidery Dutch women painstakingly rendered on their plain uniforms—details often invisible to all but the wearer—and its significance in their daily lives. She has also founded a design services firm. Nathan and Susannah are the parents of four teenagers. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… individuals who want to break away from the stresses of uncertainty to overcome their fears, adopt innovations, imagine the possibilities, set out on new adventures, and ultimately, embrace change. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE… we are hard-wired to love the idea of control, but we have to accept that some things are outside of our control. For those who shy away from willingly bringing uncertainty into their lives, they recommend implementing “balancers” to create a sense of familiarity in your day to day life. The sense of security that comes from having a few routine choices - like standard lunches or outfits - can help keep us relatively stable when uncertainty creeps into our lives (or when we are ready to introduce it ourselves!). WHAT I LOVE MOST… Nathan and Susannah have a starry-eyed optimism for the future, not because they know that everything is going to work out in the end, but because they know they will be able to handle it when something inevitably goes wrong. So they choose to imagine the best possible outcome for the future, while simultaneously creating a plan to manage their risk tolerance and address the worst case scenario.

For many of us, uncertainty is nerve-wracking. However, many of our best achievements and meaningful experiences come from a trying time of ambiguity. INSEAD professor Nathan Furr and entrepreneur Susannah Harmon Furr argue that uncertainty and possibility are two sides of the same coin. By learning to welcome and cope with the gray area, an individual can reach better outcomes. They reviewed research and interviewed innovators and changemakers to share best practices of stepping proactively into the unknown. They wrote the new book "The Upside of Uncertainty: A Guide to Finding Possibility in the Unknown" and the HBR article "How to Overcome Your Fear of the Unknown."
In this special Master Locksmith episode, I interview INSEAD Professor and author Nathan Furr, whose latest co-authored book, “The Upside of Uncertainty: A Guide to Finding Possibility in the Unknown” is out now. Whilst the classic format of the Unlock Moment podcast explores a person's life and career journey and dives into their personal moments of clarity, with The Master Locksmith episodes I invite experts in psychology, leadership and motivation to bring their ideas and guidance to help you, my listener, to find your own Unlock Moments.Most people – especially leaders – view uncertainty as a negative, something anxiety-inducing, stressful, even paralysing. But what if uncertainty could be transformed to produce a wellspring of new ideas and fresh approaches, while turning fear into courage, paralysis into resilience, and converting change-resistant people into adaptive, risk-taking innovators? This is not dream thinking. It is based on the actionable, research-backed framework developed and taught by renowned INSEAD Professor and corporate advisor Nathan Furr, a global authority on leadership, strategy, digital transformation, and disruptive innovation – and one of the world's foremost experts on managing uncertainty.Listen in and hear how to navigate uncertainty in your own life and career!Purchase 'The Upside of Uncertainty' at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Upside-Uncertainty-Guide-Finding-Possibility/dp/1647823013Discover more at: https://uncertaintypossibility.com

According to INSEAD professor Nathan Furr and entrepreneur Susannah Harmon Furr—yes, they are married—we really can learn how to face the unknown and find the creative opportunity – the capacity for innovation - that it represents. In their new book The Upside of Uncertainty: A Guide to Finding Possibility in the Unknown, which hits shelves mid-July and is available for pre-order now, they present a reassuringly practical approach to help us all develop the critical skills we need for dealing with uncertainty. We discuss whether or not uncertainty can be a blessing in disguise, leaning into serendipity, how much the pandemic has changed our relationship with uncertainty, and today's current challenges relating to inflation, supply chains, and politics.

Hvordan har BI klart å bli den suksessen de har blitt, når de er en privat skole som tar betalt for utdanning i et land hvor utdanning tilbys gratis gjennom det offentlig? Og hvordan kan vi lage en utdanningspakke som hjelper norske SMB å bli bedre på det de faktisk sliter med i sin travle hverdag? I denne episoden av #LØRN snakker Silvija med forsker og førstelektor ved Institutt for strategi og entreprenørskap på Handelshøyskolen BI, Ragnvald Sannes, om hva han mener er viktig for å holde seg relevant som utdanningsinstitusjon i en stadig endrende fremtid. — BI er en organisasjon som stort sett består av personer som er faglige entreprenører. Dette gjør at vi både har muligheten og kompetansen til å drive endring, forteller han i episoden.

INSEAD Professor Nathan Furr outlines how leaders and boards can take charge and lead into the future by Envisioning the future, Break the bottlenecks and Navigate the unknown
Jeff Dyer is a professor of strategy at BYU and the Wharton School. He and two co-authors, Nathan Furr and Curtis Lefrandt, have written the book, Innovation Capital, which explores how to lead innovation work, whether for companies or for projects, in situations where the innovator lacks the formal “power” to cause the needed steps. What do you do, for instance, if your boss doesn’t see the need for innovation? How do you get people to want to join your project? In our conversation, Jeff says part of the answer is what he calls the human capital skill of forward thinking -- which he likens to mental time travel, envisioning what people in your industry will want next, and what technology is coming that will enable new things to happen. He talks about spotting opportunities -- being a “scout” and learning to see patterns. He talks about getting other people to want to help, so that you can amass the needed resources. And he talks about building an innovation reputation that will continue to attract people to your efforts over time.
Do you have the four factors needed to succeed as an innovator? Today’s one idea is inspired by the work of Nathan Furr and Jeff Dyer and their concept of innovation capital.

Curtis Lefrandt and Nathan Furr, co-authors of Innovation Capital: How to Compete--and Win--Like the World's Most Innovative Leaders, offer advice on leading in disrupting spaces and explain how you can amplify your own innovation capital. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Nathan Furr, assistant professor of strategy at INSEAD, researches what makes great innovative leaders, and he reveals how they develop and spend “innovation capital.” Like social or political capital, it’s a power to motivate employees, win the buy-in of stakeholders, and sell breakthrough products. Furr argues that innovation capital is something everyone can develop and grow by using something he calls impression amplifiers. Furr is the coauthor of the book “Innovation Capital: How to Compete--and Win--Like the World's Most Innovative Leaders.”

Nathan Furr is an Assistant Professor of Strategy at INSEAD, where he teaches innovation and technology strategy. He is a recognized expert in the fields of technology strategy, digital transformation, and disruptive innovation. He is the #1 bestselling author of Nail It Then Scale It: The Entrepreneur's Guide to Creating and Managing Breakthrough Innovation, The Innovator's Method: Bringing the Lean Start-up into Your Organization, and the new book LEADING TRANSFORMATION How to Take Chargeof Your Company's Future. Podcast Highlights Who is Nathan Furr? Nathan cares about the dreams that people have and them getting the chance to pursue those dreams. He started his career in industry and even tried his hand at a start-up where he learned a lot of lessons the hard way. This lead him to ask the question of “how does breakthrough innovation really happen?” and eventually to Silicon Valley. That’s where he stumbled upon the fundamental dilemma that he’s been trying to answer with his books and work. We live in an environment of uncertainty and change and the tools we use today were designed during the industrial revolution, they were not designed to address an environment of radical uncertainty and hyper change. Uncertainty is the main theme that runs through all of Nathan’s work. It’s hard to see beyond the fence of your daily life what’s possible. The driving force behind new tools and frameworks is technology. Technology has lowered the barriers and made the world more dynamic and rapidly changing than ever before. Is change accelerating? Before the industrial revolution there was no such thing as Management, there were no courses you could take, and no business schools. During the 1700’s technology changed the nature of industry and introduced new problems. Business schools were created to solve these new problems. The question Management tries to solve is “how do I coordinate, how do I optimize, and how do I execute?” There are more new companies and new inventions with more new people participating in the process than ever before and this is contributing to the environment of dynamism. This is the golden age for hardware entrepreneurs. The framework has shifted from “how do I coordinate, optimize, and execute on the capture of value?” to one of “how do I create new value?” Breakthrough Innovation The big players are getting bigger and the smaller businesses are growing around the opportunities around mass customization. Many big companies are now looking to work with start-ups. Software is making the world more modular and allows businesses to work with each other rather than just compete. There are more automobile related start-ups in the last five years than almost any other category. INSEAD INSEAD was founded to be the Harvard of Europe. Once you get outside the United States, INSEAD is very well known. Breakthrough innovation crosses borders. We’re all in this world together and we all have to figure out how to deliver efficient, effective service wherever they our customers are. Staying On Top Of Change Nathan found that innovators engage in five fundamental behaviours. The number one behaviour is associating, where they look at other areas of life and applying an idea to another area. There is a lot of innovation that gets stuck in some area that can transform the way business is done in another area. Observe the world and keep your eyes open.

Nathan Furr preaches on 1 Peter 4:12-19. Here, Peter encourages us as we face trails and suffering because we are followers of Jesus. This exposes our idols and gives us an opportunity to worship Jesus in the midst of suffering because we are loved, we have the Holy Spirit, and God's Glory is coming. We see that suffering is ultimately for our good and for God's Glory.
