„Jei patyrinėtume pastaruosius 200 metų, žmonijos raidos pažanga išties nuostabi. Žmonės moka skaityt ir rašyti, mergaitės eina į mokyklą, vaikai yra paskiepyti, gyvename dvigubai ilgiau“, – sako Anna Rosling Ronnlund, didžiųjų duomenų analizės ir komunikacijos ekspertė iš Švedijos.Kartu su savo vyru Ole Rosling ir jo tėvu, statistikos mokslo žvaigžde Hansu Roslingu (1948-2017) ji parašė pasaulinį bestselerį „Faktų galia“ (2019 m. lietuviškai išleido „Tyto alba“, vertė Daiva Vilkelytė), kurio pagrindinė žinia – pasaulyje viskas ne taip blogai, kaip esame linkę manyti. Bent jau visuomenės raidos srityje.„Bet pažiūrėję į aplinką ir klimatą matome, kad yra atvirkščiai. Daugybė dalykų juda priešinga linkme,“ – išskirtiniame interviu LRT pripažįsta sausio pabaigoje Vilniuje viešėjusi ekspertė. Kaip ir prieš 20 metų, kai Roslingai įkūrė statistikos komunikaciją išpopuliarinusį „Gapminder“ fondą, Anna Rosling Ronnlund įsitikinusi, kad gebėjimas analizuoti duomenis ir suvokti faktus yra sudėtingų problemų sprendimų pagrindas.„Dabar turime dar geresnes technologijas, esame labiau išsilavinę, atliekame daugiau tyrimų. Yra daugybė sričių, kur žmonija yra pažengusi kaip niekada, todėl aš manau, kad esame labiau pajėgūs spręsti dideles problemas. Bėda ta, kad turime problemų, kurios yra gana sunkiai išsprendžiamos“, – apibendrina pašnekovė.Pokalbis apie mūsų pesimizmą, statistiką ir faktais paremtą pasaulio vaizdą.Autorė Vaida Pilibaitytė

Svamp finns överallt. De kan göra oss friska, sjuka eller berusade. De används inom industrin för att framställa enzym och många vaccin tillverkas med hjälp av svamp. Men allra viktigast är svampen kanske för våra ekosystem – det är tack vare deras nätverk av mycel som de flesta av skogens träd får den näring de behöver. Anna Rosling berättar här om hur svampar fungerar, varför de är både lika och olika allt annat levande – och om den roll de spelar för livet på jorden.. Hosted on Acast.

Chapter 1 What's FactfulnessFactfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think is a book written by Swedish statistician Hans Rosling, along with his son Ola Rosling and daughter-in-law Anna Rosling Rönnlund. The book explores common misconceptions people have about the world and provides a fact-based perspective on various global issues. It seeks to challenge pessimistic views and highlight positive progress by presenting reliable data and statistics. Factfulness offers readers a more accurate and realistic understanding of the world we live in.Chapter 2 Why is Factfulness Worth ReadFactfulness by Hans Rosling is worth reading because it offers a refreshing perspective on the state of the world and helps readers develop a more accurate understanding of global trends and challenges. Here are some key reasons why the book is worth reading:1. Data-driven insights: Rosling, a renowned statistician and public health expert, presents an abundance of data and evidence to debunk common misconceptions surrounding global issues. He uses clear and accessible graphs, charts, and visual aids to convey complex information effectively.2. Challenging biases: The book prompts readers to question their preconceived notions and biases about the world. Rosling argues that many people have a pessimistic view of global progress, often due to outdated information or media coverage that focuses on negative events. Factfulness challenges these biases and highlights the significant improvements happening globally.3. Optimistic outlook: Rosling emphasizes the progress humanity has made across various sectors, such as health, education, and living standards, and provides a more optimistic outlook on the future. This perspective can help counterbalance the prevailing negativity and doom-and-gloom narratives that often dominate public discourse.4. Understanding complexity: Rosling encourages readers to think critically and consider the complexity of global issues. He explains the importance of avoiding generalizations, recognizing the diversity within countries, and understanding that progress is not linear. This nuanced approach helps readers develop a more accurate understanding of the world's complexities.5. Practical advice: The book provides practical advice on how to evaluate information, validate sources, and navigate the deluge of data and news in the modern world. Rosling's toolkit for critical thinking equips readers with skills to become more factful, helping them make better-informed decisions and participate more effectively in public debates.Overall, Factfulness is worth reading because it challenges misconceptions, offers data-driven insights, promotes critical thinking, and presents a more optimistic and nuanced view of the world. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a more accurate understanding of global trends and a useful guide for navigating the flood of information in the digital age.Chapter 3 Factfulness SummaryFactfulness by Hans Rosling is a book that presents a new and refreshing perspective on global development and challenges commonly held beliefs about the state of the world. Rosling, a renowned Swedish statistician and public health expert, aims to dispel misconceptions and highlight the progress and possibilities that exist in today's world.The book begins by examining the pervasive negativity bias that is present in our society, which leads us to believe that things are worse than they actually are. Rosling reveals that people tend to hold outdated and exaggerated ideas about global issues such as poverty, population growth, and education. He argues that these misconceptions hinder our ability to accurately assess the world...
Penicillin, doftande ostar och vårt dagliga bröd har vi svamparna att tacka för. De har också en viktig roll i naturen i det fina samspel som kallas för symbios, där växter och svampar är beroende av varandra för att överleva. De bidrar också till biologisk mångfald som gör ekosystemen mer robusta mot förändringar i miljön. I kartläggningen av svampar på ängar, i skogen och på åkern använder svampforskaren Anna Rosling moderna dna-analyser, som gensekvensering.
Na sequência do XIV ENMISP, estivemos à conversa com Anna Rosling Rönnlund, cofundadora da GapMinder, sobre a importância e atractividade da comunicação de dados eficiente.
El libro Factfulness o Realidad de Hans Rosling nos explica como los prejuicios y el mal uso de los datos condiciona la visión de los problemas del mundo. Un libro del 2018 del médico sueco, profesor de salud internacional, Rosling sugiere que la gran mayoría de la gente está equivocada sobre el estado del mundo. Demuestra con evidencia que las personas creen que el mundo es más pobre, menos saludable y más peligroso de lo que realmente es, y atribuye esto no a la casualidad sino a la desinformación y a los errores psicológicos de nuestros cerebros. Si quieres aprender la realidad del mundo aquí usaremos a la estadística como terapia para que te sientas más positivo sobre el futuro de nuestro planeta y de nuestra raza.
Es wird alles immer schlimmer, eine schreckliche Nachricht jagt die andere: Die Reichen werden reicher, die Armen ärmer. Es gibt immer mehr Kriege, Gewaltverbrechen, Naturkatastrophen. Viele Menschen tragen solche beängstigenden Bilder im Kopf. Doch sie liegen damit grundfalsch. Unser Gehirn verführt uns zu einer dramatisierenden Weltsicht, die mitnichten der Realität entspricht. In dieser Episode beschäftigen wir uns mit dem Buch "Factfulness" des weltbekannten Statistikers und Wissenschaftlers Hans Rosling. In seinem Werk untersucht Rosling die menschliche Wahrnehmung globaler Entwicklungen und zeigt auf, wie wir uns von Vorurteilen und falschen Annahmen leiten lassen. Mit Hilfe von Statistiken und Fakten führt er uns vor Augen, dass die Welt oft nicht so schlimm ist, wie wir sie uns vorstellen. In dieser Folge analysieren wir, wie Roslings Buch uns helfen kann, unser Weltbild zu verbessern und eine realistischere Sicht auf die Welt zu gewinnen. Wir stellen die wichtigsten Thesen und Erkenntnisse vor und diskutieren, welche Konsequenzen sich daraus ergeben können.

Wenn man richtig hinschaut, ist die Welt gar nicht immer schlechter geworden, sondern immer besser. Sagt der Autor Hans Rosling in seinem Buch "Factfulness". André, Micha und Kristin sehen diesmal auch alles positiv - André fliegt in den Urlaub, Micha geht im Museum als Neandertaler durch und Kristins Dachschaden wird behandelt! Herzlich willkommen bei „Klein aber Hardt“. Wettermann Micha Klein und die Moderatoren André und Kristin Hardt von „André und die Morgenmädels“ nehmen hier wöchentlich das Weltgeschehen auseinander. Immer mit einem leichten Augenzwinkern und Diskussionspotential. Dabei nehmen sie kein Blatt vor den Mund.

Tara discusses her origins in acting in Canada and what she learned studying at York University, how she went from waitressing to her first film gig, "Extreme Measures" with Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker, balancing stage work in the theater VS on-screen in TV and film and what type of performing she prefers. From there, we beam into our Trek talk to learn how Tara was cast as President T'rina and how it linked with her playing a repressed Mennonite on "Impulse" along with another character she portrayed elsewhere, her understanding of what a Vulcan is, and how they behave to control their emotions, the method to do a proper Vulcan mind meld, the leadership on and off set with Soneqhua Martin-Green, working with Doug Jones and how the romance between T'Rina and Saru happened, the day Stacey Abrams showed up on set, what it was like to film during the COVID-19 pandemic and how that affected her scenes. Plus, an early role in William Shatner's "Tek War" series, being the voice of Nova on the 90's "Silver Surfer" cartoon, her first time being squibbed on "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3" and more!

En la entrada del Center Court de Wimbledon puede leerse este fragmento de If, el poema de Rudyard Kipling: «Si puedes encontrarte con el Triunfo y el Desastre, y tratar a esos dos impostores de la misma manera». De la gestión de las expectativas a la edad de 18 años habla Oriol Romeu, futbolista profesional del Southampton. El dinero tiene cosas buenas y cosas malas y desarrollar un criterio permite ahorrarte problemas. Aquel que no sepa gestionarlo, en el largo plazo, siempre será miserable.Escucha el podcast en tu plataforma habitual:Spotify — Apple — iVoox — YouTubeArtículos sobre finanzas en formato blog:Substack Kapital — Substack CardinalApuntes:La temporada de mi vida.

(NOTAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO AQUÍ: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/127-pablo-melchor-ayuda-efectiva/)Hace algo así como un año, una oyente del podcast me contactó. Y me dijo que quería patrocinarlo, pero en lugar de para anunciarse ella o su empresa, que quería usar el patrocinio para anunciar a una fundación que se llamaba Ayuda Efectiva. Y que me quería presentar al fundador para que fuese él quien me contara qué hacían exactamente, porque sospechaba que nos íbamos a llevar bien. Pues, Marina, sólo puedo decirte que acertaste de lleno.Aquella primera charla con Pablo me descubrió dos cosas. Por un lado el mundo del altruismo eficaz, una forma de ayudar a otros que encaja muchísimo con mi manera de mirar el mundo y con ese espíritu crítico y racional que - creo - define un poco a este podcast. Por otro lado, descubrí a alguien fascinante con quien me quedé con ganas de sentarme a grabar un capítulo. Y aunque tardamos, por mi culpa completamente, lo que vas a escuchar es el resultado. Y creo que te va a gustar. Porque Pablo se ha embarcado en una misión complicadísima, pero apasionante. Que tiene que ver con no limitarse a ayudar a otros, sino con hacer el dificilísim ejercicio de buscar constantemente la mejor manera de hacerlo, aquella en que el dinero invertido tiene el máximo impacto. Que parece algo lógico pero la mayor parte de las veces no es la manera en la que se diseñan los planes de ayuda. Entre otras cosas porque encierra debates muy profundos sobre, por ejemplo, cuál es el valor de una vida y cómo compararla con otra. De eso y de otras muchas cosas hablamos Pablo y yo en el capítulo de hoy.Charlando con él antes de la entrevista, me dio una alegría enorme. Me dijo que con las cuñas que habíamos ido haciendo desde que nos conocimos kaizen se había convertido en una de sus principales fuentes de donantes. En su nombre y en el mío: muchísimas gracias. Visto el éxito, hemos decidido llevarlo un pasito más adelante: hemos creado un equipo de donación para oyente de kaizen dentro de Ayuda Efectiva. Nos hemos marcado un primer objetivo: recaudar 10.000€ con los que podremos ayudar en más de 20 países de África a mejorar la salud de miles de niños. En concreto, con esos 10.000€, vamos a evitar 4.837 infecciones por gusanos parásitos, 957 casos de deficiencias de vitamina A y 286 casos de malaria. Yo ya he donado y te animo a hacerlo tú también. Si quieres colaborar es muy sencillo, no tienes más que entrar en ayudaefectiva.org/kaizen

¿Qué porcentaje de la población global vive en la pobreza? ¿Cuántas niñas acaban la educación básica en los países pobres? ¿Cuál es actualmente la esperanza de vida en el mundo? La mayoría de personas responde incorrectamente a estas preguntas y a otras similares. En este libro Hans Rosling explica por qué somos más pesimistas de lo que en realidad deberíamos ser dada la situación real de nuestro mundo. Rosling afirma que tenemos diez instintos que distorsionan nuestra visión y que nuestro problema es que no somos conscientes de lo que no sabemos, e incluso cuando estamos informados nos dejamos llevar por sesgos inconscientes y predecibles. En compañía de Óscar Vara, profesor de economía, autor y divulgador, examinaremos las ideas principales del popular libro y veremos si, como afirma Rosling, las cosas en el mundo están mejor de lo que pensamos.
Et non, nul n'est épargné par ses biais cognitifs ! En prendre conscience est déjà un levier de transformation ! Anna et Julien exploreront plusieurs biais cognitifs parmi ceux répertoriés en 4 catégories dans la rosace du Codex* - (1) donner du sens au monde qui nous entoure - (2) agir vite - (3) mémoriser des informations pour plus tard - (4) trier le trop grand nombre d'informations à traiter ! Pour cette dernière catégorie, Anna partagera les résultats d'une étude* qui a mis en évidence l'activité neuronale impliquée dans le biais de négativité chez des personnes dépressives, grâce à la technique des potentiels évoqués. Puis, au travers de la lecture de la psychologie de la connerie*, de Factfulness* et d'une étude du collectif ACTELab*, Anna et Julien revisiteront la manipulation de ces biais en faveur de l'environnement, autrement appelée « les nudges verts», en utilisant le levier social, celui des récompenses ou encore de la gamification. Clôturant cette chronique en autodérision sur son propre biais de l'angle mort, Anna vous invite à explorer les références ci-après pour explorer et s'orienter avec nos biais cognitifs. *Références pour aller plus loin Codex des biais cognitifs - https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/16/The_Cognitive_Bias_Codex_%28French%29_-_John_Manoogian_III_%28jm3%29.svg Zhao et.

Este episódio é sobre o livro Factfulness: O hábito libertador de só ter opiniões baseadas em fatos que foi escrito por Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Hans Rosling e Ola Rosling. A ideia central do livro é desmistificar ideias pré concebidas de como o mundo esta hoje e como ele tem evoluído através de fatos e dados. Rosling realmente nos provoca a mudar a lente que usamos para enxergar o mundo. Mudar da visão dramática para uma visão baseada em dados. Ao fazermos isso, segundo ele, vamos entender o mundo de uma maneira mais ampla, correta e não apenas com achismos ou com o que a gente vê nas mídias e noticiários. Isso nos permite tomar decisões melhores, inclusive nos negócios e até diminuir o estresse gerado pelas falsas ideias e percepções de que o mundo está piorando. O que você acha disso?

Skvelá skúsenosť. Úžasná hodnota. Pohľad na výnimočný život. Kniha Moc faktov vzala rebríčky predajnosti útokom a z mena Hans Rosling sa stal celosvetový pojem. Vo svojich memoároch Rosling vymenil čísla za ľudí. Namiesto štatistík a grafov nám približuje svet medziľudskej interakcie - svet zážitkov, priateľstiev, skúseností, sklamaní aj radostí. V spolupráci so žurnalistkou Fanny Härgestam nám autor sprostredkuje svoju inšpiratívnu cestu životom, ktorý ho z nemocnice v Afrike doviedol až na svetové rečnícke pódiá. Čitateľská verejnosť má tak možnosť dôverne spoznať jedného z najvýraznejších mysliteľov posledných rokov. Hlboko ľudské a objavné postrehy o živote na našej planéte bez akýchkoľvek predsudkov predstavujú len jeden aspekt knihy Ako som sa naučil rozumieť svetu. Popritom sledujeme celoživotnú púť lekára, vedca, humanistu a otca rodiny, ktorý aj v pokročilom veku neváhal skúmať príčiny rôznych epidémií priamo v centrách ich výskytu. Rosling si uvedomuje, že pokrok a blahobyt posledných desaťročí prichádzali len pozvoľna s každou novou generáciou a vyšším vzdelaním. Sám načrel aj do vlastného rodokmeňa a priznal sa, že jeho prastarí rodičia pri čítaní len slabikovali, babička prala v cementovej výlevke a otec sa ostýchal vkročiť do moderného hypermarketu. A to hovoríme o Švédsku dvadsiateho storočia. Boli to predovšetkým fakty, ktoré pomohli Roslingovi vysvetliť, ako funguje svet. A ešte zvedavosť a odhodlanie. Hans v audioknihe rozpráva, ako sa stal mysliteľom, a približuje svoju celoživotnú cestu z pohotovostnej kliniky v Mozambiku na Svetové ekonomické fórum v Davose. S hlbokou ľudskosťou a radosťou rozpráva príbehy, ktoré s rovnakou radosťou počúval celý svet. „Patrí medzi ľudí, ktorí nezištne urobili veľa na zlepšenie života ostatných... jeho neúnavná práca a odhodlanie budú navždy prinášať prospech ľuďom na celom svete. Názov knihy dokonale vystihuje to, čo tu nájdete: Ako tento výnimočný človek žil, ako počúval a pozoroval svet okolo seba a ako dokázal vďaka svojej ochote vstrebávať to, čo videl, a ovplyvňovať dôležité objavy a zmeny.“ Jeff Linemen „Veľkú časť svojho života venoval náprave falošných predstáv, ktoré má väčšina západných krajín o štátoch z iných častí sveta. Jeho spomienky sú láskavé, humánne a neoblomne čestné.“ Booklist Audiokniha: Ako som sa naučil rozumieť svetu Autor: Hans Rosling a Fanny Härgestam Interpret: Martin Kaprálik Dĺžka: 08:44 h Vydavateľstvo: Publixing Audiokniha Ako som sa naučil rozumieť svetu na webe Audiolibrix (MP3 na stiahnutie) Audiokniha Ako som sa naučil rozumieť svetu na webe Publixing (MP3 CD)
Extrem harmonisch ging es zu, als Irmgard Lumpini, Anne Findeisen und Herr Falschgold die Werke der letzen Wochen noch einmal verbal Revue passieren ließen als da wären: Stephen King mit “Billy Summers”, “Der rote Faden” von Rosie Price und “Factfullness” von Hans Rosling. Und weil das allen Beteiligten ein bisschen peinlich war, haben sie sich am Ende kurz wegen, jawoll!, Corona in die Haare bekommen. Aber nur kurz.In der nächsten Woche bespricht Herr Falschgold sein zweites Buch von Sally Rooney und wird damit zur offiziellen Expert*in für Sozialismus, Frauen und Gedöns. This is a public episode.

Hume found that there seems to be a significant difference between positive statements (about what is) and prescriptive normative statements (about what ought to be), and that it is not obvious how one can coherently move from descriptive statements to prescriptive ones. While Hume was dealing with moral philosophy, a related epistemological concept derived from Hume's thought is the fact-value distinction, in which statements of fact based upon reason and physical observation, and which are examined via the empirical method, are separate from statements of value, which encompass ethics and aesthetics. This barrier between 'fact' and 'value' implies it is impossible to derive ethical claims from factual arguments, or to defend the former using the latter. 5:44 - James Madison lays out his views on a large diverse republic in Federalist No. 10, see the Wikipedia entry as well10:33 - See the great “Cognitive bias cheat sheet” and “What Can We Do About Our Bias?” by Buster Benson writing for Better Humans12:49 - Listen to Season 2, Episode 18 of Conversations With Coleman: The Myth of Climate Apocalypse with Michael Shellenberger (YouTube), more on Coleman Hughes and Michael Shellenberger13:27 - From the Season 2, Episode 22 show notes of Conversations With Coleman (YouTube): "My second announcement today is about my interview with Michael Shellenberger from a few weeks back. It seems that Michael made some very misleading or outright false claims about the connection between climate change and extreme weather events. Specifically, he said that climate change did not contribute to the intensity of wildfires in California and Australia. It was a surprising claim to me at the time, but I didn't push back in the moment. Although in retrospect, I should have because it turns out this is not the consensus of the climate science community. Some of his other claims, including that we're not in a sixth mass extinction are at the very least far more controversial than he indicated. So to rectify this, I'm going to get a mainstream climate scientist on the show very soon, and cover all of these topics in detail."13:34 - Factfulness by Hans Rosling22:04 - In his 2018 book Stubborn Attachments economist Tyler Cowen argues that “[t]he lives of humans born decades from now might be difficult for us to imagine, or to treat as of equal worth to our own. But our own lives were once similarly distant from those taking their turn on Earth; the future, when it comes, will feel as real to those living in it as the present does to us. Economists should treat threats to future lives as just as morally reprehensible as present threats to our own.”23:11 - See “The Brain Isn't Supposed to Change This Much” (The Atlantic, 2021)25:25 - Watch “Louis CK Everything Is Amazing And Nobody Is Happy” (YouTube)27:53 - See “How much plastic actually gets recycled?” (Live Science, 2020), “Your Recycling Gets Recycled, Right?

It was drafted by representatives with different legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, and was it set out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected, and is widely recognized as having inspired, and paved the way for, the adoption of more than seventy human rights treaties applied today on a permanent basis at global and regional levels. The Declaration comprises 30 individual articles, the first of which states “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.” and the 25th of which states “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.” For the other 28 Articles see the Universal Declaration on Human Rights (United Nations)46:31 - Watch the benefit song “U.S.A.

Hans Rosling created the concept of Factfulness after a lifetime of working as a physician, academic, and public speaker. In his book "Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think", Rosling explains the ten rules to approaching your view of the world in a fact-based manner. The general message boils down to how we, as individuals, tend to view the world more negatively than we need to. Touching on subjects of gender equality, racial equality, and social equality, Hans Rosling debates popular media content in stating that we have much to celebrate. In this episode, we review the ten rules of Factfulness and how they can be applied more in our lives - as well as our future activist mindsets. --- Thanks for listening!

What are companies here to do? Make profit? Or is there something more? That's what my guest on this episode, John Rosling, is here to help me find out.On previous episodes, I've explored the idea that companies don't always get the best out of their employees, and that a lot of human risk crystallises within organisations, because of the disconnect between individual priorities and the stated organisational priorities.John is the CEO of Contexis, a company that helps large organizations become more effective and productive. Their passion is around purpose in business and how companies can measure it. John's view is that if you get organisational purpose right, then you can drive human productivity, human happiness and organisational effectiveness. By implication, therefore, also reduce human risk.In a career spanning over 30 years, John has worked at large companies such as Unilever and Diageo, as well as smaller startups. In our discussion, we explore what Purpose is, why it matters and what we can do to ensure organizations have it.For more on John & Contexis
„Die Menschen, die Probleme als einen Teil des menschlichen Lebens anerkennen und Glück nicht an einer mehr oder minder nur eingebildeten Problemfreiheit messen wollen, sind die intelligentesten Wesen, die wir kennen und zugleich auch die seltensten.“ (Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, 1940 - 2015, war ein US-amerikanischer Psychologe und Autor) Wie oft habe ich schon gedacht: Mensch, das schaffe ich einfach nicht! Ich wünsche es mir so sehr, dieses Ziel zu erreichen - aber dann tauchen immer wieder Hürden und Hindernisse auf, die mir als so groß und kompliziert erscheinen, dass ich einfach nicht weiß, wie ich sie überwinden soll. Und das zermürbt mich… Und dann beginnt meine Energie immer mehr zu schwinden und das Ziel scheint immer weiter und weiter entfernt… manchmal mache ich sogar Rückschritte und dann bin ich besonders frustriert, weil ich das Gefühl habe, ich bin meilenweit von meinem Traumleben entfernt - dann male ich mir in den schillerndsten Farben mein grauenvolles Leben aus, das vor mir liegt und das trostlos dahin plätschert und mich irgendwann an den Rand des Nervenzusammenbruchs bringt - denn es ist das Leben eines gescheiterten Menschen, der einmal große Träume hatte. Und dabei hatte doch alles einmal so hoffnungsvoll und energetisch angefangen… Kennst du solche Augenblicke auch? Hast du auch manchmal das Gefühl, dass du zwar doch eigentlich genau weißt, wie es geht, du dich aber dann dennoch auf einmal auf einem Floß befindest, das genau in die entgegengesetzte Richtung treibt? Dann kann ich dich beruhigen - denn genau das ist der Prozess, den ein erfolgreicher Mensch bestimmt tausendfach schon erlebt hat. Das Entscheidende jedoch ist: er hat diesen Zustand nicht nur erlebt, sondern auch überwunden und damit erfolgreich gemeistert! Du musst dir das wie eine Prüfung vorstellen, die das Leben dir stellt: Und die entscheidende Prüfungsfrage, die all deine Energie in Bewegung setzen soll und wird, ist: „Wie sehr willst du es wirklich?“ Wenn du diese Frage aus vollem Herzen mit „So sehr, dass ich jetzt keine Ausreden mehr, sondern endlich Lösungen finde!" beantwortest, dann hast du diese Prüfung bestanden und dich nicht verunsichern lassen. Wie sagt Lars Amend immer so schön: Aufgeben ist keine Option! Und genauso ist es auch! Also: Hör auf zu jammern, krempel' die Ärmel hoch, kneif deine Pobacken zusammen und leg los! Denn nur du kannst all die Steine, die dir im Weg liegen, zur Seite schaffen - und manchmal steht sogar noch auf dem einen oder anderen der Steine, die du dabei beiseite räumst, eine kleine hilfreiche Botschaft für dich darauf, die dir den weiteren Weg erleichtern wird… Und für den Anfang kannst du dich ja sehr gern erst einmal von mir mit dieser neuen Folge meines Podcasts „Sinnig und Stimmig“ ein wenig motivieren lassen. Ich freue mich, wenn ich dein liebevoller Arschtritt sein darf :) Von Herzen, Deine Marlene Die verwendeten Quellen aus dieser Folge: Dyer, Dr. Wayne W.: Der wunde Punkt: Die Kunst, nicht unglücklich zu sein.

„Solange die Menschen eine Weltsicht haben, die wesentlich negativer ist als die Wirklichkeit, können schon bloße statistische Daten dazu beitragen, ihre Stimmung aufzuhellen. Es ist tröstlich und auch inspirierend, zu erfahren, dass die Welt in Wirklichkeit besser ist, als man dachte. Eine neuartige Glückspille, völlig kostenlos online erhältlich!“ (Hans Rosling, 1948 - 2017 war Wissenschaftler und Professor für internationale Gesundheit in Stockholm) Durch unseren technischen Fortschritt, die voranschreitende Pressefreiheit auf globaler Ebene und eine zunehmende Vielfalt von Medien werden wir tagtäglich mit Neuigkeiten aus aller Welt überschüttet. Ein Großteil der Informationen, die wir dabei erhalten, sind eher negativer Natur: Ob Gewaltverbrechen, Naturkatastrophen, Flugzeugabstürze, Amokläufe, Korruption und Menschenhandel, Kriege, Hungersnöte oder wie ganz aktuell jetzt auch die Pandemie, die unsere ganze Welt in Atem hält: Leid und Elend scheinen allgegenwärtig und dominieren unsere Medien deutlich. Kein Wunder also, dass viele Menschen angesichts dieser Informationslage nicht gerade positiv in die Zukunft blicken, was die globale Entwicklung betrifft - doch ist es wirklich so schlimm um unsere Welt bestellt, wir wir vermuten? Hans Rosling beweist mit seinem Buch „Factfulness - wie wir lernen, die Welt so zu sehen, wie sie wirklich ist“, dass dem nicht so ist. Wir Menschen haben eine überdramatisierte Weltsicht, die sich instinktiv auf allen Ebenen unserer Entscheidungsfindung widerspiegelt. Er zeigt auf, dass die real vorliegenden Fakten wie z. B. die Datenlage bezüglich der Aspekte Armut, Bevölkerungswachstum, Kindersterblichkeit, Bildung und Gesundheitsvorsorge eine deutlich positive Sprache sprechen und bei weitem nicht so besorgniserregend ist, wie wir häufig befürchten - ganz im Gegenteil: Es gibt durchaus Grund zur Freude und Hoffnung - so zeigt er auf, dass es zahlreiche positive Entwicklungen gibt, über die wir einfach nur nicht genügend Bescheid wissen - beziehungsweise unser Wissen diesbezüglich leider (bisher noch) nicht in unsere Urteile über die Gesamtsituation unserer Welt miteinfließt. Selbst Menschen, die von Berufs wegen mit diesen Themen besser vertraut sein müssten wie z. B. Politiker, Nobelpreisträger, Investmentbanker oder Wirtschaftsexperten sind kaum besser über die Verbesserungen in diesen Bereichen, die sich durch einfach nachzuprüfende Fakten bestätigen lassen, informiert. Fatal daran ist, dass auf Grundlage solch falscher Annahmen über den Zustand unserer Welt womöglich global die falschen Entscheidungen getroffen werden (könnten) - und dass wir auch in unserem Alltag durch diese pessimistisch geprägte Grundhaltung dazu neigen, unser Leben und die damit verbundenen Möglichkeiten der Einflussnahme eher pessimistisch einschätzen. Doch wie Rosling schon betont: „Es ist tröstlich, dass die Welt in Wirklichkeit besser ist, als man dachte.“ Genau aus diesem Grunde möchte ich dir in der neuen Episode von „Sinnig und Stimmig“ einige dieser ermutigenden Wahrheiten über unsere Welt vorstellen. Einiges wir dich erstaunen und vieles wirst du bisher vermutlich nicht gewusst haben. Allen Fakten gemeinsam ist jedoch, dass du durch ihre Kenntnis vermutlich eine positivere Perspektive auf unsere Welt entwickeln wirst! Ich wünsche dir von Herzen ganz viel Freude mit dieser bisher längsten Folge meines Podcasts. :) Alles Liebe, deine Marlene Die verwendeten Quellen aus dieser Folge: Rosling, Hans: Factfulness - Wie wir lernen, die Welt so zu sehen, wie sie wirklich ist.

Stora Retorikpriset delades ut igår 15/4 och här får du höra godbitarna. Vi delar med oss av vår nervositet och hur vi hanterar den, om vikten av förebilder och om höjdpunkterna från Erik Nivas och Anna Roslings presentationer.
"A fourth separation of powers shall be incorporated in every system of government for the independent feedback of results through a Resulture or Feedback Branch of Government."You might imagine that for all the debate at the heart of government, there might be some function to check up on the outcomes of these debates. And in some cases there is. In many, even in most cases - nothing. Maybe a profit and loss account to show value for money - but with regards to the actual purpose of all the laws and policies and programmes, answering the question of whether they have achieved their aims - there is no structure in place to make sure this happens, and so mostly they become atrophy and waste, pointlessly clogging up the system and pointlessly exhausting tax-payer's money. Would a business survive these conditions? In this episode we start with Montesquieu's idea of checks and balances behind the separation of powers, explore its reality in the UK's political system, and think about what effective feedback might mean for this system.Talking points:The Separation of powers from MontesquieuThe centralised nature of these powers and opportunities to respondSystems Thinking, Cybernetics: responding to realityThe political class - unaccountable and uninformedWastageBusiness as a model for government and its limitsFeedback on Social PurposeMyths and perceived credibility about the centreBroadband now and the 1984 privatisation of BTCybernetic feedback as non-political: Something just happens.Law-making - spectacle vs valueMessianic transformation vs gradual improvementDiversity of perspective, Design Authorities and purpose - safety, reliability and performanceFailure enquiries - no politics, no blaming and the origins in the Victorian rail system...and the Global Financial CrisisA mechanism to take feedback decisions out of politicsThe contradiction at the heart of politicsExisting feedback institutions, their limits and potentialAbandonment powers for laws that don't workThe cost would be a fraction of the benefitThe building of a body of knowledge about specific circumstancesLinks:The god-like power of the feedback loop (1 hr BBC 4 film of Jim Al Khalili on The Secret Life of Chaos):https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xv1j0nMathematics, complex systems and small changes (5 minute clip from above):https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0060b2cOn the separation of powers: origins in Montesquieu and Aristotle:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_powersIn Our Time - Montesquieu (podcast - 50 mins)https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b5qnfxList of supreme audit institutions :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supreme_audit_institutionUK's National Audit Office:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Audit_Office_(United_Kingdom)Reading List:Schumpeter, Joseph (1976) Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy, George Allen and UnwinDrucker, Peter (Number 14, Winter 1969) The Sickness of Government, The Public InterestFriedman, Mark (2005) Trying Hard Is Not Good Enough: How to Produce Measurable Improvements for Customers and Communities, Fiscal Policy Studies InstituteStraw, E. 2014.

It explores what might be learned from the history of Antidote – an organisation set up to foster more emotionally supportive school environments – to inform the development of such a model. It starts with pupil, staff, and parent surveys to describe their experience of the school, using the data that emerges to have conversations with each other to develop an explanation about what it means and a strategy for improvement. Every school should engage in this sort of process every year. League tables of public examination results are too blunt an instrument, and unlike the PROGRESS process do not stimulate solutions as well as highlight problems. Independent surveying and confidential reporting averts the syndrome of the untouchable but largely ineffective head teacher. All government agencies should find out how their stakeholders experience them and be held to account for responding to the findings. Board members would then have the judgment of the people and organisations they are there for and not airbrushed data from management in the annual review. - 22 Park, James. 2018.

The cost in time, money and organisational complexity was high. This was a bane of ‘old world' engineering and led to the demise of much of the West's manufacturing industry. Starting with the automotive industry, Japanese companies revolutionised the process with ‘zero defects', ‘right first time' and similarly purposeful intentions. Today, either a company's manufacturing is world class or it's not in business.

Jerome Whittingham is a renowned freelance photographer, writer and podcast producer, commissioned by a wide range of organisations and enterprises to tell their stories. Such a background in storytelling gives a natural interest in books and writing, so learning about Jerome's most impactful books was an intriguing part of his appearance on the Pig Wrestling Podcast. The first thing noted by Jerome was that the majority of the work he reads is non-fiction, whether that's reports, academic books or books about journalism. This makes some sense, as someone so integrated into the world of journalism and non-fiction writing is likely to find themselves fascinated by whatever work comes from that same world of telling real-life stories. This also shows the passion with which Whittingham views his profession, as something to be engrossed in as often as possible rather than just a meaningless job that he can switch off from at 5 pm on a weeknight. One author that Jerome was sure to mention was Hans Rosling, a statistician with a passion for presenting data in interesting and entertaining ways. One study that Jerome specifically talked about of Rosling's was one in which he asked chimpanzees and people of a range of demographics a similar series of questions, resulting in not a single group scoring higher than the chimpanzees because of their natural biases. This made Jerome feel better about his role as a journalist, as it was demonstrative that people were negative to the job because it's "our biases that are making us feel this way". Rosling's work has been revolutionary in the world of statistics, and it's easy to see why a non-fiction writer would feel so drawn towards these intriguing representations of the very world that we all live in. If you'd like to learn more about Jerome Whittingham, his profession, and exactly how he sees the world, listen to his appearance on the Pig Wrestling Podcast. He goes into depth in a wide variety of fascinating topics, making this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking to broaden their horizons or expand their method of thinking.

There is so much going wrong in the world. It's hard to feel good when everything is just so bad. But what if I told you it doesn't have to be like that? You can have hope and still not be ignoring the major problems we face. Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World-and Why Things Are Better Than We You Think by Hans Rosling tells us it's okay to believe in positive outcomes for the future. Using data, Rosling argues things are not as bad as they seem and we can use this knowledge to actually do better. After the break, I'll give you another book that'll leave you in awe of the technological possibilities for the future.
(NOTAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO AQUÍ: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/44-sera-2020-el-mejor-ano-de-la-historia-de-la-humanidad/)Actualización agosto de 2020El capítulo que vas a escuchar, originalmente no se llamaba así. Se llamaba: "¿Será 2020 el mejor año de la humanidad?"Cuando escribo esta pequeña actualización, en agosto de 2020, todos tenemos bastante claro que el mejor... lo que se dice el mejor... seguramente no va a ser.La verdad es que me he resistido mucho a cambiar el título. Porque aunque me ha costado muchos cachondeos de oyentes que lo han descubierto después de su publicación, eso me daba bastante igual. Porque el cachondeo, con respeto, siempre es bueno y es sano.Pero he decidido cambiarlo ligeramente por dos motivos: el primero, y más importante, es porque creo que el sufrimiento que ha traído este 2020 a tantas personas merece un respeto. Y yo no terminaba de estar cómodo con la idea que alguien que hubiese pasado alguna tragedia personal por culpa del COVID viera este título. El segundo motivo es que el título en sí era lo de menos. El tema del que realmente trata este capítulo sigue siendo cierto y sigue siendo válido a pesar de todo lo que hemos sufrido en 2020. Y no me gustaría que nadie dejara de escucharlo simplemente porque el título fuera poco acertado.De hecho, te contaré un secreto: la mayor parte de lo que vas a escuchar lo escribí en 2018. Pero no le encontré el hueco en el podcast hasta principios de 2020. Qué le vamos a hacer.Hecha esta aclaración, ahora sí, te dejo escuchar este capítulo. Y, por supuesto, cachondearte en redes sociales después. Faltaría más.Una mañana cualquiera, Drácula se presenta en tu salón. Y en lugar de usarte de desayuno, o al menos antes de hacerlo, le da por tener una amable conversación contigo. Te cuenta que se acaba de despertar de una larga siesta, de un siglo y medio más o menos, y que está fascinado por tu mundo. Mientras tú tiemblas de miedo en una esquina, él enciende y apaga la luz, jugando con el interruptor como un niño pequeño. Gira y gira sobre sí mismo, pasando los ojos por cada rincón de la habitación, maravillado. De pronto se para y te mira fijamente. Se acerca lentamente a ti. Sonríe entre divertido y confundido y te dice:“He sido un noble durante más de 400 años. He vivido en palacios y castillos. He conocido a las personas más poderosas de la historia y nunca, jamás, había conocido tanto lujo. Sabía que el futuro traería maravillas. Pero no tenía ni idea de que las haría ordinarias.”He querido empezar el capítulo con este pequeño homenaje para recomendarte una mini-serie llamada Drácula, que ha hecho la BBC y que tienes ahora mismo en Netflix. Al menos en España, en otros países imagino que también, pero no lo sé. El caso es que a mí me ha parecido bastante entretenida y además, con esta escena que te he descrito, me recordó un tema que llevaba queriendo tratar desde la primera temporada de kaizen. Y lo que pasa es que con esta mente dispersa que la naturaleza me ha dado, lo había dejado a medio escribir y me había puesto con otros. Y es que, a excepción de Drácula -y tal vez otros seres inmortales que flipan con nuestra época-, me parece que todos tenemos cierta sensación de que el mundo va a peor en los últimos años: seguimos cargándonos el planeta, surgen populismos en casi todos los países occidentales y en la distancia ya empezamos a escuchar el murmullo de la siguiente crisis cuando ni siquiera hemos cerrado del todo las cicatrices de la anterior. Así que el panorama no parece el más positivo.Pero siendo todo eso cierto, que lo es, a la vez creo que nos falta la perspectiva suficiente como para entender que vivimos en el mejor momento posible. Literalmente: nunca ha habido un momento mejor en la historia de la humanidad. Claro, que lo mismo no soy objetivo, porque es el que me ha tocado vivir. ¡Decir lo contrario, me deprimiría profundamente!Al menos parece no estoy solo en esto de creer que hay cosas que celebrar. En los últimos años se han publicado varios libros y estudios que analizan de manera metódica cómo ha progresado la humanidad y que me han servido de referencia para este capítulo. Hay también una página maravillosa que se llama “Our World in Data” que se dedica a analizar cómo progresamos frente a los mayores retos de la humanidad. Así que como han sido bastantes las referencias en las que me he apoyado y para no estar repitiéndome continuamente, que sepas que tienes todas en las notas del capítulo por si quieres profundizar por tu cuenta.Uno de esos libros es Factfulness, de Hans Rosling. Y en él, Rosling explica que hay 10 instintos o tendencias que distorsionan la imagen que tenemos del mundo. Son cosas como la tendencia que tenemos a enfocarnos más en las cosas negativas que en las positivas, lo mal que se nos da estimar magnitudes o la necesidad que tenemos de agrupar y generalizar. No me voy a extender sobre ellas, porque son un montón, y porque además tienen mucho que ver con un tema del que ya te he hablado bastante en el podcast: los sesgos cognitivos. Creo que cada uno de estos instintos que menciona Rosling están claramente asociados a algún sesgo. Para mí, un ejemplo muy claro de esto son las noticias. Si al hecho de que las noticias negativas venden mucho, y que por lo tanto estamos bombardeados por ellas, le unes nuestro sesgo de disponibilidad (es decir, que nos parece más frecuente, o más probable, lo que hemos escuchado recientemente, simplemente porque está más disponible en nuestro cerebro), pues creo que es evidente que podemos acabar teniendo una visión distorsionada de la realidad. A ver, no me malinterpretes, no estoy en contra ni mucho menos de que las noticias nos recuerden las cosas que van mal. Porque es obvio que las cosas no van bien en muchos aspectos. Es más, hay una curiosa y peligrosa paradoja en eso de que sea el mejor momento de la historia para estar vivos, porque igual que lo es, podemos convertirlo en el peor casi de golpe. En algunos aspectos, la diferencia entre mejorar y no hacerlo puede perfectamente ser la diferencia entre nuestra supervivencia o nuestra extinción. O al menos, una vuelta a sufrimientos que creíamos olvidados. Vamos, que no estamos como para relajarnos tampoco. Pero sí creo que es un falso dilema que tengamos que elegir entre conocer y celebrar los éxitos o ser conscientes del camino que queda por recorrer y de la importancia de los retos que tenemos por delante. En fin, que todo este rollo es para explicarte que quiero dedicar algunos capítulos a explorar eso que algunos llaman contrarianismo. Es decir, narrativas alternativas que nos hagan replantearnos lo que habitualmente tomamos por cierto. O hablar de realidades menos evidentes, al menos. Y en el capítulo de hoy he querido empezar por la cara A, la más luminosa. La de buscar cosas de las que alegrarnos. Ya tendremos tiempo, más adelante, de pensar en cuáles de las cosas que creemos que van bien, quizás no lo vayan tanto. Así que, entre tanta noticia catastrófica, hoy vamos a intentar poner una perspectiva histórica a nuestra propia evolución. Insisto, no para que nos relajemos, sino para que entendamos que hemos conseguido avances increíbles en los últimos años y reforzarnos en nuestro compromiso por mejorar aún más en lo que nos queda por recorrer.
In this episode, we'll look at the numbers (from A or Z to A to Z), the world (it changes), and the brain (it's fast). I'll also suggest some solutions like getting distance, asking 'What's cheaper than a helicopter?', and the advantages of travel. Hans Rosling's is a nice contribution to the literature of books like A Field Guide to Lies, The Half-Life of Facts, How to Lie with Statistics, and How Not to Be Wrong. What makes Rosling's book different (and excellent) is the gusto. It's a book written by calloused hands. The words on the page are the same that he spoke in Davos. The thoughts are important and the thinking is too.
A master communicator with a passion for global development, the world has lost a legend with the death of the Swedish statistician Han Rosling. He had the ear of those with power and influence. His friend Bill Gates said Hans "brought data to life and helped the world see the human progress it often overlooked". In a world that often looks at the bad news coming out of the developing world, Rosling was determined to spread the good news with his captivating presentations about extended life expectancy, falling rates of disease and infant mortality. He was fighting what he called the ‘post-fact era‘ of global health. He was passionate about global development and before he became famous he lived and worked in Mozambique, India and the Democratic Republic of Congo using data and his skills as a doctor to save lives. Despite ill health he also travelled to Liberia during the Ebola outbreak in 2014 to help gather and consolidate data to help fight the outbreak. On a personal level he was warm, funny and kind and will be greatly missed by a huge number of people. This podcast first broadcast on 10 February in the series More or Less.
