How to Write a Deep Dive Into Your Investment Ideas

This week we have Tom Morgan, Director of Communication and Content at the KCP Group. 

This episode we will focus on how to become a curiosity sherpa and what that really means, how we can close the gap between map and territory, how to lean into your impulse, how investors fall in love with their own thesis and why we should destroy our mental models. We also discuss Tom’s thoughts on the potential global face change, and we’ll finish the conversation on the flow of networks and systems: how to understand it all?
