Epistemic Status: I've researched this broad topic for a couple of years. I've read about 30+ books and 100+ articles on the topic so far (I'm not really keeping count). I've also read many other works in the related areas of normative moral philosophy, moral psychology, moral epistemology, moral methodology, and metaethics, since it's basically my area of specialization within philosophy. This project will be my PhD thesis. However, I still have 3 years of the PhD to go, so a substantial amount of my opinions on the matter are subject to changes. Disclaimer: I have received some funding as a Forethought Foundation Fellow in support of my PhD research. But all the opinions expressed here are my own. Index.

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 Rosling argues that many people have a pessimistic view of global progress, often due to outdated information or media coverage that focuses on negative events.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...

BIO: Guillermo Cornejo is the CEO of Riders Share, the Airbnb of motorcycles he started while attending grad school at UCLA.STORY: Guillermo had an insurance company handling claims for his customers. When he realized the insurance company had a 50% profit margin, he decided to start his own insurance business. This became a costly and challenging venture because he had no experience handling claims.LEARNING: Don't underestimate the value of experience. “Whenever somebody is talking to me about any industry, I'm all ears. I know I know nothing.”Guillermo Cornejo Guest profileGuillermo Cornejo is the CEO of Riders Share, the Airbnb of motorcycles he started while attending grad school at UCLA. Before that, he worked in analytics roles for GM, Nissan, and Hyundai. He grew up in Peru and enjoys anything that makes your heart race.Worst investment everGuillermo launched his company in 2018, and it grew immensely. The company booked over a million dollars in rentals within the first year. Guillermo was on top of the world.The company was working with an insurance partner with pretty good rates but was providing terrible service to Guillermo's customers. It took many months to handle the claims. When Guillermo looked at his company's history of accidents and measured the cost of paid-out claims and how much he had paid the insurance company in premiums. He found the insurance company was making a 50% margin in profits. This got Guillermo thinking he should do it himself.Guillermo raised some capital and used most of it to set up an insurance company. This was an expensive venture (millions of dollars). The more the company grew, the more bad customers it attracted—from risk-takers to fraudsters trying to steal his motorcycles. On top of that, he realized how difficult it was to handle claims, and just like the insurance partner, it took him months to pay out claims.Lessons learnedDon't underestimate the value of experience.Andrew's takeawaysDon't let overestimation bias mislead you into thinking you can do more than you're capable of.Try to shift your mind from I think I know something to I know I know nothing.Actionable adviceDon't overestimate your skills, abilities, and knowledge. Work with advisors and connect with more experienced people who have done it before. They will help you understand how much you don't know and then try to fill that gap.Guillermo's recommendationsGuillermo recommends reading Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think, co-authored by a previous guest on our podcast, Anna Rosling Rönnlund.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsGuillermo's number one goal for the next 12 months is to double his company revenues while remaining profitable.

Daniel started his career with a design agency but switched his focus towards global health. We'll hear all the cool things he's doing with the Simple project, he details how design really matters in public health projects, and how he thinks of design. We end with an extraordinary sentiment from Daniel saying, “Design is a big tent, and we need to welcome more people into that tent.” Find out why he said this and much more. Press download now! [00:01:30] Daniel tells us what he's currently doing right now with the Simple project. [00:02:48] Since Daniel is shifting his focus towards healthcare, we hear how that happened. [00:06:21] How did Daniel go about integrating the field with the design aspect when he was approaching a problem like Simple? [00:12:12] We hear about the intersection and how the intersection functions between paper and digital. [00:13:55] How can you be a designer without relying so much of your work on technology? [00:17:22] Django shines some light on the idea of the service of a designer, and he asks Daniel to tell us what the majority of his design process involves in his work. [00:20:06] Memo shares his thoughts on how only a few designers can work on problems that Daniel is working on, and he wonders how we can make working in healthcare more universal and access of the design work more universal.

Quotes [00:04:46] “The challenge with venture capital, it's very cushy, but none of the problems are your problems.” [00:07:06] “The first thing you notice is that healthcare workers have almost no time.” [00:10:06] “I was in Switzerland to speak at a conference, and the title of the talk was, “Can Designers Save Lives? Not By Themselves.” [00:12:19] “Technologists love to think that we should digitize everything. Paper is great!” [00:15:16] “Another thing that's really important is to think about who sets the requirements for a system.” [00:18:08] “A lot of design is talking.” [00:18:22] “Designers love coming in with solutions, but oftentimes, especially in healthcare, you're designing for an audience who's very unlike you.” [00:18:46] “I like that designers can be shepherds of those kinds of stories and connect the decision makers to healthcare workers who literally work for those decision makers.” [00:19:09] “One of the superpowers of design is to make potential futures appear real.” Spotlight [00:26:49] Django's spotlight is nappy.co. [00:27:54] Daniel's spotlight is the book, Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World—and Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Hans Rosling.

Founded in 2017, BOLT.works has risen quickly to a preeminent position for sectors like construction, challenging established industry leaders for a major market share. Starting out with a vision and building out their technology solution from the bottom up, BOLT.works continues to drive change in both their platform and the people they interact with as they prepare to expand into the wider European market. Topics Discussed: From CTO to CEO, and why Ville's unusual career path made perfect sense for him Factfulness and optimism, why we might miss some of the positive stories going on in the world How automation can totally transform the pen and paper staffing industry and why BOLT.works had to build the solution themselves Why transforming people is biggest challenge in reshaping the industry, and technology is relatively simple by comparison Favorite book: Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think
This week David and Curtis dive into the issue of time and how our understanding of time horizons can profoundly impact our perspective on the world, whether it is getting worse or better, and what actions that should lead us to take. As Christians who believe in eternity, we should be good at “playing the long game,” but we often let ourselves get caught up in the issues of the moment, and let our compressed time horizons lead us to fear or despair, rather than hope.

Ron Adner is the leading strategy thinker on the topic of business ecosystems. He is the author of The Wide Lens: What Successful Innovators See that Others Miss and a new book, Winning the Right Game: How to Disrupt, Defend, and Deliver in a Changing World. Ron shares important insights on the language of strategic alignment to help you navigate the new world of coalitions and ecosystems. If your new value proposition requires rewiring your relationships - you're in an ecosystem where there is interdependence. It takes a new language to teach new strategies, and the rewards can be great. Listen in to see if you should be shifting your perspective. Key Takeaways [2:10] Much of what Ron writes is on how to think about innovation and make sure you are doing the right work. He stresses efficient, effective action. [3:24] What kind of shifts will disrupt your ecosystem? Modern disruptions change the ecosystem, for example, making a change in how healthcare is delivered and changing the boundaries of industries. [7:11] The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the work ecosystem. It's a virus; it's supposed to stay in its healthcare box. It broke through boundaries to affect international relations, trade, supply chains, and more. An ecosystem disruption requires an ecosystem response. Ron shares a link for listeners to read Chapter 1 of his book, for free, to learn about the challenge we are all facing. [10:45] In 95% of conversations where people use the word “ecosystem,” you could substitute the word “mishmash,” with no loss of meaning. Ron claims there is a lack of structured thinking about ecosystems. He shares a specific definition of ecosystem, and how it connects to whether or not your new value proposition requires rewiring relationships. [12:53] Hans Rosling wrote in Factfulness about the secondary and tertiary effects of the globally important decisions we make. Ron says people can't confidently discuss third-order consequences. His work is built on the structure of interdependence; understanding the system that is implied by a value proposition. Think about the structure of the system that needs to come together for the proposition. [16:35] Ron believes that if we can think more broadly about the set of parties we are going to interact with, a lot of things become easier to see. It requires flexibility and true empathy for the counterparty's position. [18:36] When writing his book, Ron discovered that the structure of interdependence is changing. It's necessary to know what the changes are. In Jack Welch's GE, it was clear what the industry was and easy to rank who was number one. Today, all sorts of parties are on the same game board playing different games. Choose the game you want to win! Winning the wrong game can feel a lot like losing. [21:05] Meeting the clients' needs better than the competition was the traditional execution lens and it is still needed. But is that all that's needed? Is your ability to deliver on that promise entirely within your capability set, or are you going to be relying on other parties and partners to do something to enable you to deliver, not your product or service, but the value proposition that you're making? [22:50] Is it better to follow the traditional execution of the value proposition? It depends on whether you have easy access to the abilities and resources needed to deliver on that proposition. If not, you need an ecosystem of partners that can do something to enable you to deliver on the value proposition. And you need to put them on the same pedestal to maintain the value proposition. [23:45] Ron shares a case study from Michelin, and their run-flat tire. They didn't invest enough in their service garage partners and the product collapsed. Critical partners are just as important to strategize for as your end consumers. [24:50] Jan cites Steve Justice, former program director for Lockheed Martin, saying, “You've got to stand in the future. And if people are laughing at you, you know you're far enough out there, that you're standing in the future.” [25:48] Ron suggests asking, “What do we need to get there?”, “Who do we need to get there?”, “How do you align them?” He explains the differences between a project and an ecosystem. In an ecosystem, your partners may not know that you're planning to rely on them. In a project, everyone knows who the manager is. In an ecosystem, there is no hierarchy of authority. You rely on strategic alignment. [28:48] An ecosystem that's functioning well is one that's in balance. [29:42] Chapter 6 of Winning the Right Game is an attempt to understand what individual leadership means when you're playing in the ecosystem game. There is a distinction between the execution mindset required to succeed in a setting where the leader puts his organization first, and the alignment mindset required to align different organizations into an ecosystem coalition, putting the coalition first. [33:27] Jim refers to Joseph Pine and James Gilmore's concept of the experience economy, where the experience, not the service, is the greater value proposition. Ron talks about Amazon and Alexa's value proposition for the smart home and how they surpassed Apple, Google, and Microsoft to lead in smart homes, and how Tesla surpassed GM in electric cars. [37:25] Some leaders can't make the jump from leading others to leading the organization. Ron says there are different categories of leaders. We need execution people in industries. For others, building coalitions comes more naturally. Most of us are not at the top of the organization. Ron describes a mindset that is helpful for middle executives in choosing the projects they want to be in. [41:22] The language of strategy is inadequate for today's tasks. Ron suggests using the chapters of Winning the Right Game to communicate what underlies your strategy. Use the new language of strategic alignment to educate the people below and above you in the organization. [46:04] Ron summarizes. Chunks of the world operate in an industry mindset. Chunks of the world are shifting toward an ecosystem situation. First, figure out what side of the world you are in. Use the industry toolbox for industry. If your opportunity relies on a new set of collaborators and a new mode of collaboration, use the new ecosystem strategic alignment toolbox. If you get it right, rewards are great. [50:02] Jim invites listeners to visit theleadershippodcast.com and closes with a Stanley A. McChrystal quote that leaders should be like gardeners, creating and maintaining a viable ecosystem in which the organization operates. Quotable Quotes “The key in a difficult world is efficient, effective action.” “Classic disruption … was a study of identifying substitute threats while they were still off the radar. … All that disruption was really a technology substitution.” “When I talk about an ecosystem disruption, it's this disruption that doesn't change the technology within a given box. It changes the boundaries that used to define these boxes that we can think of as traditional industries. That, I think, is what we're seeing, more and more.” “An ecosystem response is one where a coalition of actors is pulled together. ” “When I talk about an ecosystem, I have a very specific definition in mind. … It's the structure through which partners interact to deliver a value proposition to an end consumer.” “The ecosystem, then, is anchored not in any given actor, not in a firm, but in a value proposition and the structure through which multiple partners interact.” “Whenever you have a value proposition that requires a rewiring of relationships, that's when you're moving into this ecosystem world, which, I will argue, requires a new strategy toolbox to draw from.” “When you have a new proposition that doesn't require rewiring [relationships], you don't need to worry about this ecosystem stuff. You can go back toward traditional tools.” “Your challenge is not just winning but choosing the game you want to win. The threat, of course, is that you can win the wrong game, and winning the wrong game can feel a lot like losing.” “Can you execute in a traditional execution way, or do you need to rely on an ecosystem? Why do we see firms relying on partners? It's because they don't have easy access to the capabilities or the resources.” “How is it that great people are succeeding in one setting and being less successful in the other?” “In the real world, if you're in a room and you're the only person with the right answer, you're totally useless. Your job is to get everybody else to the right answer, and that requires language.” “It's not saying there's a new world order or everything has changed. It's saying some things have changed and perhaps you're in a situation that might be different but it doesn't mean everything is.” Resources Mentioned Theleadershippodcast.com Sponsored by: Darley.com Ron Adner Ron Adner on LinkedIn Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College The Wide Lens: What Successful Innovators See that Others Miss, by Ron Adner Winning the Right Game: How to Disrupt, Defend, and Deliver in a Changing World, by Ron Adner Clay Christensen Canon Nucor U.

In this week's episode, Brad and Jonathan question the notion of needing to escape from your life. While we all get tired of the mundane nuances that life throws at us, we often escape these constrictions by frivolously spending money during the hours in which we own our time. Taking a break isn't the worst thing on earth obviously, but reclaiming our time and spending it with who or what we love can help erase the feeling of needing to escape from the world! Take a look outside, it doesn't look too bad right?

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!

In this episode of the Wisdom & Wanderlust Podcast, Michael and Robyn talk with Court Whelan, an exhibition leader, guide, photographer, author and conservationist whose mission is to inspire us to do our part in protecting our planet and the amazing people, cultures, places and wildlife that call it home. Court discusses eco-tourism, photography, conservation and how they benefit each other. He also shares some statistics regarding the economic benefits to a community dedicated to conservation as well as clues us into some easy things that we can do to be better stewards of our earth. "Something I still say to today is influencing the influencers of our world. I think travelers tend to be a bit more extroverted, a bit more involved, a bit more active, a bit more outspoken, a bit more conscientious, and so if I can turn those people onto conservation via travel, I have this great disproportionate impact on saving the world and stuff." - Court Whelan [17:24] What You Will Learn: [00:01] Intro [01:42] Trying to see through the crystal ball [02:59] Revisiting photos [05:39] Balancing photography and being presence in the moment [08:30] How his sense of wanderlust played into his pursuit of ecotourism and entomology [14:59] Traveling after college [17:50] What is conservation, ecotourism, sustainable and regenerative travel [21:16] Working with local communities [29:31] What Court does to ensure minimal impact and maximum contribution to a place he’s visiting [32:58] Some sustainable best practices for travel and day-to-day life [38:39] How photography came into Court’s life [41:34] How conservation, travel and photography come together [44:20] Photographing the monarch butterfly migration [47:48] What caused the greatest impact in the evolution and growth of the travel industry [49:34] What has he learned about himself, the world and life through traveling [54:27] Rapid fire questions [57:48] Court’s self-care habits at home [59:19] His advice to the listeners [1:01:45] Where to contact Court [1:02:14] Outro Resources: Court Whelan’s website Court Whelan on Instagram The Wild Photographer podcast The Monarch Migration: A Journey through the Monarch Butterfly's Winter Home by Court Whelan The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Hans Rosling, and Ola Rosling The Blue Zones Kitchen: 100 Recipes to Live to 100 by Dan Buettner

Jared Siegel talks about wealth, pessimism vs. optimism, and the Dunning Kruger effect in this solo episode of Success That Lasts. Here are a few highlights: Value acceleration is a process that uncovers the answers to personal, financial, legal, and tax questions in the operations of a business. The aim is to maximize the value of the business at the time of exit, minimize taxes, and protect, harvest, and manage personal and professional wealth. We all have biases that we may be unaware of. “Knowing what you don’t know is wisdom,” Jared remarks. Often, people are likely to find themselves falling into the ‘I’m not biased’ bias, which prevents them from discovering and managing their biases. Jared believes that getting wealthy relies on different skills, mindsets, and approaches than staying wealthy. Staying wealthy typically involves a combination of frugality and paranoia, whereas getting wealthy centers around accumulation. “People who stay wealthy save like a pessimist and invest like an optimist,” he quotes. Tomorrow’s success is not guaranteed, and nothing binds it to follow in the footsteps of today. Strategic financial planning ensures that money is accessible to you whenever and wherever you need it. A well-built plan supports adaptability, resilience, and optionality. The Dunning Kruger effect is relentless in preventing people from achieving wealth. It is a cognitive bias that dictates that we are hardwired to overestimate our own competence when it comes to things we know little about.

In this video I will talk about the Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think book by Hans Rosling, Ola Rosling and Anna Rosling Rönnlund. This book is about why we are seeing the world as an increasingly worsening place, instead of looking at all the progress we have made. Instead of blaming the media it actually goes to the root of the problem, the human psychology and how our minds work.

SUMMARY Howard Ross, a lifelong social justice advocate, has authored the Washington Post bestseller, Everyday Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgments in Our Daily Lives. Smashing long-time myths we hold dear, Ross addresses the many faces of unconscious bias. His book offers a plethora of data and anecdotes illustrating the urgency to develop a greater awareness of our own irrational beliefs and leanings. In short, Ross lays out a strong case for watching ourselves more carefully to notice and at least neutralize our biases. SOME KEY TERMS Unconscious Bias - comes from social stereotypes, attitudes, opinions, and stigma we form about certain groups of people outside of our own conscious awareness; can be fed by snippets of information that we might get from biased media or social media or other sources, which are often taken out of context Theory of Mind - the ability to attribute beliefs, intentions, wants, and knowledge to others, and to understand when others have beliefs that are the same or different from our own Superego - the civilizing facet of the personality structure, controlling the id through rules that we have picked up during our life Selective Attention - a mental process through which we see some things but not others, depending upon our point of focus Diagnosis Bias - the propensity to label people, ideas, or things based on our initial opinions Pattern Recognition – the tendency to sort and identify information based on prior experience or habit (includes stereotyping) Confirmation Bias - a tendency for people to gather information or respond to a circumstance in a way that confirms their already established beliefs or ideas Priming - the implicit tendency to respond to something based on expectations created by a previous experience or association Anchoring Bias (AKA focalism) - the common tendency to rely too heavily or “anchor” on one trait or piece of information when making decisions Mirror Neurons – cause us to feel a deep connection to the experiences of others; sometimes called “the basis of civilization” QUOTES FROM ROSS “Unconscious influences dominate our everyday life. What we react to, are influenced by, see or don’t see, are all determined by reactions that happen deep within our psyche. Reactions which are largely unknown to us.” “We are constantly making decisions that are influenced by unconscious biases. In fact, even when our biases seem conscious, they may be influenced by a pattern of unconscious assumptions that we have absorbed throughout our lives.” “Whether you think they should or not, qualifications rarely have anything to do with Presidential elections. In fact, since 1950 arguably the least qualified candidates won more often than they lost! Whether we should or not, we vote for president based on how the person makes us feel.” “We are trained to think we can talk people out of their points of view if we give them the right ‘evidence.’ But…political biases actually distort our ability to reason logically. In the battle between emotion and rationality, emotion usually wins!” “Most people I know like to think of themselves as ‘good people.’ We like to think that we treat everybody around us fairly, at least most of the time, and we shudder to think that we might be biased in our nature. And yet it is apparent that to be biased is almost as normal as breathing, and that our hidden fears and insecurities often get expressed in the various ways we react and respond to each other.” “We like to think we are rational, and that our emotions are secondary. This is not unusual in Western cultures. We have a long history of valuing the rational over the emotional.” “We tend to have much greater empathy for people who are similar to us, particularly racially.” RECOMMENDATIONS BUY Our Search for Belonging: How Our Need to Connect Is Tearing Us Apart BUY Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think Begin to identify your own biases, take the free, computer-based Implicit Association Test (IAT).

The Gift of Humour 2020. Let’s face it. It’s been a challenging year. Covid has forced us to mask up, distance and sanitize our hands until they are raw. We’ve had to isolate, bubble and some of us have had to learn so much new technology, we could probably talk Apollo 13 down. We’ve faced more ZOOM meetings that we care to think about. Thank goodness for the front line and essential workers who have done everything to keep the rest of us safe. Without them, we would be lost -or worse. Compared to other global catastrophes - war, earthquakes, tsunamis- Covid asked the majority of us to do one thing: stay home. Watching Netflix is not a hardship. It has brought us gems like the latest season of the Crown, and of course, the Queen’s Gambit. If you haven’t seen The Queen’s Gambit, may I say it has renewed my passion for tranquilizers. I mean chess. I’m not good at chess. I have to take a nap after four moves, but this mini-series has inspired me to become a better player as well as, step up my wardrobe game! Netflix was one of the ways that I got the through Covid. I also read a tremendous amount. Three books changed my perspective about the future (and it does look good). You might have read about them in my past blogs- Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism and Progress by Steven Pinker and Factfulness: Ten Reasons We’re Wrong About The World and Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Hans Rosling. Purpose also got me through Covid. A few years ago, I joined an amazing local organization here in Toronto called City Street Outreach. https://www.citystreetoutreach.org/ Spearheaded by husband and wife, Alex and Grace, City Street Outreach makes it their mission to feed and clothe Toronto’s homeless and most needy. Covid gave me more time to help them. I’m also grateful to family, friends, friends of friends and strangers who chipped in food, clothing, dry goods, time and tax-deductible donations to this worthy cause. Finally, laughter got me through Covid and the US elections. I shared virtual laughter with friends, family, clients and strangers. Experts say that humour and fear are closely linked in our brain. Many times, when we face the unknown, we laugh. Humour is not only a release but it’s also a way of making sense and making fun of the unknown. Covid still remains a huge unknown. I have been blessed to have some very funny people around me. They make me laugh at times when the only other option is to pour a glass of red wine and cry endlessly into my Viggo Mortensen satin pillow. I have been blessed to turn ‘the funny’ into a career and get a chance to share it with others; whether it be through stand-up comedy or motivational speaking. Now, I would like to share the gift of humour this holiday season. If you or someone you know needs to share their humour, feel free to check out my virtual comedy course entitled Stand Up In Ten Steps. https://judycroon.com/services/virtual-comedy-coaching/ I leave no comic behind. Everyone is funny, even the seemingly most boring people, because they usually have a dark side! Whether you are a comedian, a speaker, or someone who just wants to take a fun course, join me. While sharing a laugh, you’ll also get to help someone in need- 25% of proceeds will be donated to City Street Outreach. Happy Holidays. Stay Safe. Laugh Long & Prosper. Judy Croon www.JudyCroon.com

Synes du også, at klimadebatten er en kende unuanceret? Føler du dig handlingslammet og måske opgivende, når du læser om de katastrofer, der vælter ned over verden hver dag og at dommedag er nær? Så kan du med fordel lytte til denne episode af Bæredygtig Business. For i dag giver vi dig håb og et perspektiv, du måske ikke har vidst, at du savnede. Vi taler om konstruktiv journalistik og sætter ord på hvad det er og hvad det betyder for dig. Lyt med når jeg besøger Ulrik Haagerup, som udover at være journalist også er Founder og CEO i Constructive Institute. De sidste 15-20 år er journalistik og medier blevet til en sand ”opmærksomhedskrig”. Alle kæmper om læsernes opmærksomhed og dermed annoncekroner. Og hvis det vigtigste i den journalistiske formidling, nemlig oplysning og information, ikke er målbart, så risikerer vi, at det der er målbart, bliver det vigtigste, nemlig gule bjælker og negative overskrifter. Det forsøger konstruktiv journalistik at gøre op med. Og det kan virksomheder, der producerer bæredygtigt, faktisk også bruge i deres kommunikation. Du kan blandt andet høre om: • At vi i øjeblikket har en meget forskruet version af virkeligheden og at det blandt andet er derfor verden er så polariseret • At der er for meget håbløshed i den nuværende kommunikation/journalistik og at løsninger og troen på, at vi kan gøre noget ved det, også skal være en del af debatten. • At konstruktiv journaliststik ikke det samme som ukritisk journalistik og om de tre søjler i konstruktiv journalistik • At folk er ved at drukne i nyheder. De vil gerne have historier. • Om en af pointerne i Steffen Max Høghs kommende bog; At hvis man som virksomhed kommunikerer konstruktivt og troværdigt ud til medarbejdere og kunder, vil det styrke interessen for- og troværdigheden i en virksomheds produkt eller brand.

Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think. The book Factfulness is a book by Swedish statistician Hans Rosling with his son Ola Rosling and daughter-in-law Anna Rosling Rönnlund. In the book, Rosling suggests the vast majority of human beings are wrong about the state of the world. In the 1st episode I share my thoughts on his book, as I believe everyone should know that the world is getting better, not worse!
On episode four our host, John Papola, speaks with author, academic, and historian Deirdre McCloskey. McCloskey describes herself as “a literary, quantitative, postmodern, free-market, progressive-Episcopalian, Midwestern woman from Boston who was once a man.” Needless to say, this is a very interesting and wide-ranging conversation! Papola and McCloskey unpack economics and philosophy from Deirdre's unique, historical point of view — including what she's learned about economic planning. Deirdre also shares the story behind her two great transformations: From Marxism to Classical Liberalism; and from male to female.

You may familiar with the term FANG stocks, a term coined by Jim Cramer on CNBC’s Mad Money to describe the four biggest tech giants in terms of stock valuations - Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google. At BlueTech we took this concept, applied it to water and asked – who are the ‘big four’ investors in water tech? In this month’s podcast, we also review the latest addition to our book club - “Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World—and Why Things Are Better Than You Think.” The book reminds us the importance of verified insights and research and how powerful it can be in changing perception
I first met Michael Graziano at Flight Centre Canada's head office in Vancouver, BC (my former place of employment). For three years we sponsored his show, Global Degree, simply because it was one of the most inspiring and entertaining initiatives we'd seen in a long time.What is a Global Degree?The concept of the show is both simple and outrageously ambitious - Michael is on a mission to travel to every country in the world. His drive to achieve this goal is rooted in his desire to improve the post-secondary education experience, hence the name Global Degree.He has already made his way to 106 countries, capturing the excitement, and most importantly, the enlightenment that travel brings each of its pursuers. I've watched him tear down walls of ignorance, find friends in the unlikeliest of places and fearlessly cross borders some of us wouldn't even dream of approaching.If that isn't impressive enough, Global Degree has managed to build a social media community of more than 1,000,000 followers, and their videos have a collective view count of over 70 million. More Than a Milestone He is also no stranger to public speaking, with international engagements under his belt that include the impressive Hostelworld Conference held in Dublin, Ireland in 2015. His ability to unforgivingly forgo society's standards for an acceptable career path is resulting in an upgrade that our outdated education system desperately needs.
