Cultivating Imagination for Effective Leadership

We live in a complex world that’s only getting harder to navigate. The pace is faster, the problems are messier, and the future is tougher to predict. So how can your brain possibly keep up? Should we outsource everything to AI? Or is there a deeper, older intelligence we’re overlooking? That’s the question Angus Fletcher asks in his new book out today, Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter Than You Know. Angus is a professor of story science at Ohio State’s Project Narrative, a consultant to U.S. Army Special Operations, and a leading thinker on how the human mind really works — and why our creative minds are a lot more powerful than we realize, even in the age of smart machines.
