Episode notes

The speakers discuss the major changes happening in the world, such as declining birth rates and increasing life expectancy. They introduce the concept of perennials and how people are breaking away from age-appropriate behaviors. They also touch on the trend of declining birth rates and the misconception of exponential population growth.

This episode is part one of my conversation with Dr. Mauro Guillén, a Spanish-American sociologist, political economist, and management educator. I know him because he is the former dean of the Cambridge Business School. He's also a fellow at Queens College, so we share that in common too. He has built a series of research helping us look at those great trends, how they'll collide, and how they'll reshape the future of everything so that we can zoom out to get that perspective in order to zoom in and make tradeoffs that allow us to design a life that really matters.
