Are you ready for a double expresso with Dr. Robert Sternberg? In the first expresso of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast, hosts Dr. Matthew Worwood and Dr. Cyndi Burnett speak with world-renowned psychologist Dr. Robert Sternberg to explore his research and theories on creativity. Sternberg delves into his pioneering work with the Rainbow Project at Yale, which demonstrated that adding creativity and practical intelligence tests to traditional analytical intelligence measures could better predict college success and reduce group differences. Despite successful results, Sternberg faced the challenge of sustaining funding when his findings contradicted the narrow focus of his sponsors, prompting him to shift to academic administration. He eventually implemented his ideas at Tufts University through the Kaleidoscope Project, emphasizing the importance of persistence, self-belief, and overcoming obstacles in the journey of creativity. The episode also dives deep into Sternberg's theories on intelligence and creativity, including his definition of intelligence as adaptability and his "investment theory" of creativity. He underscores the need to defy societal pressures and personal biases to foster true innovation, sharing anecdotes from his own academic and professional experiences. Sternberg highlights the invaluable role of passion in learning, the benefits of a broad education, and the importance of balancing creative and practical intelligence. The conversation touches on the challenges educators face in engaging students and remaining open to new teaching methods, offering advice on overcoming institutional constraints. Stay tuned for Part 2, where Sternberg will discuss his latest theory on creativity and the future state of creativity in education.   About Dr. Robert Sternberg: Dr. Robert J. Sternberg is a Professor of Psychology in the College of Human Ecology at Cornell University and an Honorary Professor of Psychology at Heidelberg University, Germany.  Sternberg is a Past President of the American Psychological Association, the Federation of Associations in Behavioral and Brain Sciences, the Eastern Psychological Association, and the International Association for Cognitive Education and Psychology. Dr. Sternberg holds 13 honorary doctorates from 11 countries and has won more than two dozen awards for his work.  For a more extensive bio, click here.

What is transformational creativity, and how does it apply to the field of education? In the second part of the double expresso episode of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast, world-renowned creativity scholar Dr. Robert Sternberg dives into the evolving perceptions and applications of creativity over his 50-year career. Together, they engage in a critical discourse on how modern education and standardized testing fail to genuinely value creativity. Sternberg's insightful critique highlights the misuse of creativity for personal and financial gain rather than societal benefit, introducing the concept of "pseudo transformational creativity," where leadership appears transformational but serves self-interests. He emphasizes the importance of learning from history to recognize and combat deceptive leadership, advocating for "true transformational creativity" that positively impacts society. Additionally, Sternberg discusses the alarming decline in moral and civic education in favor of test preparation, arguing for a balanced, value-integrated approach to teaching creativity. The episode also tackles the implications of generative AI on creativity and cognitive abilities. Sternberg shares his concerns that excessive reliance on AI could erode human creativity and critical thinking, mentioning real-world incidents where students depended on AI against academic integrity guidelines. Sternberg offers valuable tips for educators, including promoting moral values, varying teaching styles, and encouraging independent thinking. About Dr. Robert Sternberg: Dr. Robert J.

"Are we looking at intelligence wrong? There are an awful lot of people who have graduated from top schools who become leaders who are worse than incompetent. They make their countries worse rather than better. And the conclusion I came to is that we made a mistake, in that intelligence was originally defined by the founders of the field Alfred Binet, David Wechsler, and others, as the ability to adapt to the environment a requirement. And answering a vocabulary problem for an obscure word is not about adapting to the environment. So I began to wonder where we lost the train of thought. And the conclusion I came to is that colleges just forgot the original message of the founders of the field, and so we got immersed in these numbers that turn out not to mean that much. So I wrote about intelligence as the ability to get along in the world and hopefully make the world a little bit better. And what I argue in the book is that we not only need to develop this kind of intelligence, we need to recognize that it's important, that getting A's in school and top scores on standardized tests, that's not what intelligence is about. So there are people who make serious efforts to make the world better, who fight pollution, who try to be good at what they do, you know, as judges or lawyers or as cleaning people or car mechanics, or doctors, but those aren't the ones you hear about.

“I think what happens in the United States is that politics have become so cynical and so dishonest that the words are just thrown around to scare people. The politics in many countries, including my own, especially of one of the parties, is simply a politics of fear and anger. Scare 'em, make 'em angry. And to some extent, both parties in the United States are doing that. So I think that it's not about whether the word is socialism or collectivism, it's really that at this point, given the way things are going, if we don't look for a common good, we will destroy humanity. We can't keep doing this. The temperatures can't keep getting higher. The water shortages can't keep increasing. The storms can't keep getting worse.

“A lot of kids' parents are wealthy who can afford to give them the kind of upbringing that will propel them in the direction of prestigious universities, but often the main thing they care about is that their life will be good and not that they'll make the world better, not only for others in their generation but for their own kids. So what we need to be developing is not people's ability to solve cosign problems or remember obscure words, but how do you deal with a world that is falling apart and in which people are suffering and their ability to handle those problems is poor. I think in part because their education system is so grossly inadequate and tied to this sort of academic notion of memorizing a bunch of books, and you get an A, and you get your degree. And that's not what the world needs now. I think that's pretty clear. You could memorize an English-German dictionary. It doesn't mean you could speak German or English. You could memorize the psychology textbook. It doesn't mean you can apply psychology to the world. And our notions about education are just much too academically absorbent, rather than developing leaders who will make the world a better place.”Robert J.

Humiliation. Many of us have experienced it, right? That horrific feeling of just wanting the ground to open up and swallow us. It's an awful sensation when someone decides to belittle us and make us feel small. But what is humiliation, and how can we move on from it?屈辱。我们很多人都经历过,对吧?那种只希望地面打开并吞没我们的可怕感觉。当有人决定贬低我们并让我们感到渺小时,这是一种可怕的感觉。但什么是屈辱,我们如何才能摆脱它?Humiliation is quite often compared to the feeling of shame. However, the fundamental difference is that we feel shame is deserved, while humiliation is not. It has more in common with bullying and harassment. Neel Burton M.D says that humiliation results from undermining claims that you have made, such as “I'm good at my job”, and challenges your authority to make such claims in future.羞辱常常与羞耻感相提并论。然而,根本的区别在于我们感到羞耻是应得的,而屈辱则不是。它与欺凌和骚扰有更多的共同点。尼尔伯顿医学博士说,羞辱是由于破坏了你所做的声明,例如“我擅长我的工作”,并挑战你在未来提出此类声明的权力。Imagine your colleague shocks you by unfairly calling you out on your work during a meeting with your boss. Or your friend may demean you by questioning your expertise in a hobby or interest in front of your other friends. The presence of others is the key factor in humiliation – a public dressing-down. It also has so many forms and uses in society. Public humiliation is often said to act as a crime deterrent, while it also has a place in comedy. You may enjoy watching a celebrity being roasted: a humiliation designed to highlight faults for comedic effect.想象一下,你的同事在与你的老板开会时不公平地叫你工作,这让你感到震惊。或者你的朋友可能会在你的其他朋友面前质疑你在爱好或兴趣方面的专业知识,从而贬低你。他人的在场是羞辱的关键因素——公开打扮。它在社会上也有很多形式和用途。公开羞辱通常被认为是一种犯罪威慑,同时它在喜剧中也有一席之地。您可能会喜欢看名人被烤:一种耻辱,旨在突出喜剧效果的缺点。So, how can you deal with it? According to psychologist Robert J. Sternberg, there are a few steps you can take. First, you must accept the humiliation and realise you're not the only one who has felt like this – talk to others who have experienced it and move on. Also, don't immediately try and strike back for ‘round 2' – often humiliation isn't personal.那么,你该如何处理呢?根据心理学家 Robert J. Sternberg 的说法,您可以采取一些步骤。首先,你必须接受屈辱,并意识到你不是唯一一个有这种感觉的人——与经历过的人交谈并继续前进。此外,不要立即尝试反击“第 2 轮”——羞辱通常不是针对个人的。Lastly, resilience seems to be crucial. Some people say: “What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger”. While humiliation probably won't kill you, it can hurt. Why not use the degradation as motivation to become a better worker or learn more about that hobby or interest? It could be an opportunity to start investing more in doing something you love. That way it may have an unexpected benefit.最后,韧性似乎至关重要。有人说:“杀不死你的只会让你更强大”。虽然羞辱可能不会杀死你,但它会伤害你。为什么不将退化作为成为更好工人或更多地了解该爱好或兴趣的动力呢?这可能是一个开始更多投资于做你喜欢的事情的机会。这样,它可能会带来意想不到的好处。词汇表horrific 极其可怕的wanting the ground to open up and swallow sb 某人想找个地缝钻进去awful 糟糕的,极坏的belittle 轻视,贬低make sb feel small 让某人感到渺小shame 羞耻,惭愧bullying 恃强欺弱的行为harassment 骚扰行为undermine 削弱信心,损害call sb out 批评demean 贬低,羞辱dressing-down 训斥roasted 被严厉批评fault 缺点,过错move on 接受现实,继续前行strike back 回击resilience 面对逆境顽强的韧性degradation 丢脸,屈辱

This Jungian Life Podcast

Hatred is a universal human emotion related to distancing and destroying. Hatred is anger, disgust, judgment and contempt cemented into implacable permanence. Obsessive and inflating, hatred dupes us into feeling righteous and wrathful instead of small and wounded. Hating tricks us into projecting our disowned qualities onto an outer other, making the object of our hatred into an avatar for our own split-off instincts and desires. Our fixation fuses us in a darkly intimate way with “other,” the holder of a secret we are compelled to uncover, a truth we demand to rule. Hate hides the dread of discovering the depth of our own shadow—for it is self-hatred that we seek to encapsulate and eradicate. We can face our hatreds, let them inform us, and transform them into what is brighter and more alive.    Dream I am walking and find a door that leads to a stairway. I am entranced by the stairs as they look like winding, ancient, stone castle steps like in the movies. I enter and see that lining the walls up and down the stairs are cages - each cage contains a snake. As I walk down the dimly lit stairs, the snakes come alive and begin slithering, dancing, and reaching their heads up and out until a good third of each snake is out and getting closer to me. I am surprised to realize that the holes in the cages are big enough for the snakes to escape, but I am not afraid. I know the snakes will not escape completely or harm me and I wonder why the snakes have cages at all. As I get to the bottom of the stairs I am in a large room with books, jars, shelves and tables. It is wonderous room, like Merlin's workshop mixed with Dumbledore's office. There is an older, tall man standing next to a younger woman and they are looking at a book. I have interrupted them, they were not expecting me, but neither is startled. They both look at me with curiosity. I know I have nothing to fear but also don't understand why I am there or where, exactly, I am. I am then standing next to them, and the young woman cries, “It has drawn blood! There is blood! Blood is drawn!” The man says nothing and calmly looks at me. I raise my hand and see a few drops of blood on my palm and know that I have been pricked by a needle. I didn't feel the prick and it does not hurt; I am surprised to see the blood. I suddenly know that the young woman is excited as the blood indicates that it's her time to move on to the next level and that I am to take her place as this man's apprentice. All of this knowledge washes over me as I look at the blood. I then become woozy, and my knees fail as I faint and fall gently to the floor.   References   Robert J. Sternberg.

Desde la teoría, Robert J.

Love.   Just what is it?   And why is it something that many people want to have or experience? Plenty of books and movies portray love as a romantic ideal; however, love is actually more complex than that. There are many aspects to this phenomenon—psychological and philosophical theories—but having all this knowledge doesn't automatically mean you will be able to find the right person for you and achieve “happily ever after”.   There is one more factor we need to consider: our own personal beliefs about what love is or isn't supposed to be. These stories we tell ourselves tend to influence our experiences which then leads to problems when it comes to forming relationships.   In this episode, in the first of a two-part session, I have taken a special outtake of my Clubhouse session on the neuroscience of love, relationships, and heartbreak. Hope you enjoy! Key Takeaways: Robert Sternberg's triangular theory of love and how the 3 components of love generate 8 possible kinds of love The 8 different types of love according to the ancient Greeks John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth's attachment theory On the self-limiting belief that one is either the victim or the villain of circumstance How the principle of scarcity is related to the saying “nice people finish last” On the problematic belief that a significant other is either property or an “other half” Quotes: “Make sure that you and your beloved are on the same page.” “Once you're aware of what kind of (attachment) style you have, it's then up to you to do what you can to start to work on that.” “Understanding more about yourself is a tool that allows you to be able to accept some aspects, but you can always improve.” “When it comes to love, we can be our own worst enemies in many ways.” “Love is something that you work on.” “You need to look at your love narrative. What are the kinds of beliefs that you have?” Resources: Robert J.

Mark Boundy is an expert in value building, selling, and marketing. In this episode, Mark explains how to present value to your customers in a measurable, concrete, and real way where value is quantified resulting in more profitable deals and paying customers.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how to translate your customers' feature-and-benefit differentiation into a customer-differentiated customer outcome. Understand the buyer's purchasing journey so they know the value they are getting, and you become their only choice Discover the 13 things you need to know about your customer, so you win every time   "Right now, customers are really struggling with some different issues. And slowing down and understanding your customers' business and how their business is changing gives you an opportunity to really set yourself apart as that trusted advisor, that trusted partner who can help them co-create a solution that maybe your competitors could, but your crappy competitor salespeople don't."  - Mark Boundy   Topics Covered: 02:47 - What is a sales funnel and the misconceptions about it 03:57 - The most shortsighted thinking when it comes to sales funnels 07:03 - Thoughts on some terms used that are seller-centric 08:46 - What the process looks like when humans decide at something 10:18 - What happens when customers are only self-informed 12:53 - The likelihood when there is no differentiating factor among sellers other than the price 14:11 - How to make customers ‘will I' compelling that you are the only choice for the ‘which one' decision 15:23 - Creating demand for the outcomes that come from the differentiating feature 17:10 - Importance of dollarizing outcomes 18:01 - What's with personal outcomes 19:39 - Value versus price 26:43 - Thirteen things you need to know about your customers   Key Takeaways: “If we tell salespeople just to find out what the customers have self-informed and what their envision is, what usually happens is the result of that self-informing is under informing and misinforming and some combination. And their vision for the future is probably pretty underwhelming. And if you actually build exactly what they envisioned, it would never have ROI in the first place.” - Mark Boundy “We train people using methodologies and great questions and understand and uncover the pain. To uncover, get a perfect vision of the customer's imperfect vision. When we ask them to uncover the pain, the customer can only answer the pain that is the result of their self-informed vision, they can only give you what they know. They need an expert to say have you ever thought about this or other customers like you have actually found this, too.” - Mark Boundy “You have to bring them [customers] from a 'will I' to a 'what will I'. As soon as that 'what will I' becomes compelling, then they're back to a 'will I' and it happens to be a 'will I' that you're the only available 'which one'?” - Mark Boundy “I work with my clients to understand their differentiation. And I work with them really hard to translate their feature-and-benefit differentiation into a customer differentiated customer outcomes.” - Mark Boundy “Value only exists in your customers' mind, that scale, that counterbalance only exists in your customers' mind. Your value that you articulate, it's a value proposition, you're proposing something that you hope comes into existence between your customers and yours. So, credibility is what opens their ear.” - Mark Boundy “Value has to outweigh the price. Your differentiated value has to outweigh the price premium over the next best choice.” - Mark Boundy   Resource/People Mentioned: Radical Value: How to Take Your Company to the Next Level Through Radical Customer Centricity by Mark Boundy: https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Value-Company-Customer-Centricity-ebook/dp/B08527K4ZG The Nature of Human Intelligence by Robert J.

Growing up, Robert J. Sternberg never really thought he was smart. He always did bad on IQ tests and was the first generation high school graduate of his family. Now he’s a psychologist and a professor of Human Development at Cornell University. Robert stresses the importance of creativity. He said in life, you sometimes just have to believe in yourself and that if you work hard, you can succeed. To succeed in life is not about IQ scores or grades, but about your creativity, your common sense, and your ethical sense, that you try to do the right thing. Sarah Cooper is a writer, comedian, and creator of the satirical blog The Cooper Review. She believes in adding humor to your writing and shares some tricks on how to appear smarter in meetings and get away with it. Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

Sternberg, which explores the way that the stories we mentally tell about ourselves and how love works controls the way we behave. This means that one of the most important things to look for in a potential partner is either the same, or a similar love story, so that your attitude and mindset will line up with each other. So if it seems like no matter how hard you try, you cannot find the right person, it could be your stories aren’t lining up, or are simply too different. It’s a fascinating way to look at relationships and finding the perfect fit in a partner. “Never date somebody who has a dramatically different subconscious story compared with yours” (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind The love triangle: Intimacy, passion, and commitment People subconsciously act out stories in their mind about how they think the world works, and it controls their behavior Never date somebody who has a dramatically different subconscious story compared with yours While it is possible to change your story over time, it is often a better idea to just look for someone who has the same or similar story to begin with Find out what your love-story is: https://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/200007/whats-your-love-story “Love is a Story” by Robert J.

"La creatividad es, de alguna manera, una actitud ante la vida, fruto de una decisión. La persona creativa es alguien que asume riesgos, no tiene miedo a equivocarse. Y, sobre todo, es capaz de aprender de sus errores". Así es como define Robert J. Sternberg a la persona creativa, en la entrevista que mantuvo con Eduardo Punset en Barcelona, durante una visita que este eminente psicólogo realizó a esta ciudad. Sternberg es profesor en la Universidad de Yale, Estados Unidos, y autor de numerosos trabajos y libros sobre la inteligencia humana. Sus últimas investigaciones se centran en analizar lo que se entiende por "sabiduría". El programa emite, además, cinco reportajes de pequeño formato relacionados con la creatividad. Uno de ellos expone la relación que supuestamente hay entre genio y locura, como por ejemplo en el caso de Van Gogh, y otro intenta mostrar en qué zonas del cerebro se localizan los procesos creativos. En plató intervienen Carlos Alonso Monreal, profesor de Psicología de la Universidad de Murcia, y Antoni Marí, profesor de Teoría del Arte, de la Universidad Pompeu Fabra, de Barcelona. Para estos especialistas, es cierto que ser creativo es una actitud personal de quién decide pensar distinto a los demás. Pero, sin una buena base de conocimientos, es muy difícil que se pueda crear algo nuevo. Además, hay que ser capaz de aprender de las experiencias acumuladas. Por último, no basta con tener una buena idea, hace falta luego saber venderla y persuadir a los demás de que esa idea es la mejor.
