- Societal systems, like public schools, often indoctrinate people to be compliant rather than strategic.
- This makes it difficult for individuals to adapt to a changing world requiring strategic choices.
Creating Conditions for Change
- Create conditions for change by surrounding people with signals that encourage them to embrace new ideas.
- Get feedback from trusted sources and present ideas as already supported by others.
Reassurance vs. Feedback
- Seek encouragement from a supportive group when needed, but be selective about feedback sources.
- Limit feedback to a small group of trusted individuals who can provide constructive criticism.
