Linda Rising on Values, Morality and the Impact of Politics

In this podcast Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke Linda Rising about her talk at Agile 2017 in which she explores her own reaction to the politics in the USA and how it triggered her to research morality and values. Why listen to this podcast: • The inclusiveness, openness, learning and joy that characterises the agile community • Exploring her own reactions to people with different political viewpoints and finding research into morality which helps explain them • There are values which are commonly held, but different groups empathise some over others • Experiments that show that even when people understand the differences in viewpoint individuals are largely unable to argue from the “other” perspective • Seek to come to an understanding of other people’s values, even if you don’t share them More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ http://bit.ly/2rvMGdR You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: http://bit.ly/2rvMGdR
