Deep dives

The concept of the infinite game

The podcast episode discusses the concept of the infinite game and its implications for various aspects of life, including business. It explains how an infinite game is characterized by known and unknown players, changeable rules, and the objective of perpetuating the game. The speaker emphasizes that many leaders mistakenly approach business as a finite game, striving to be number one or beating their competition. Instead, leaders should adopt an infinite mindset, understanding that winning is not the goal, but rather staying in the game as long as possible. This mindset is crucial for long-term success and sustainability.
