Jumping fences, performing precise maneuvers and galloping at high speeds require a fearless attitude and willingness to take risks. The willingness to rely on each other's instincts and abilities is crucial to success in avoiding fatal accidents. It takes "guts" for both rider and horse to trust each other implicitly, especially when faced with daunting obstacles or demanding routines. But how does your instinct work when a complication arises out of the blue? In this episode, take the opportunity to get in the saddle and ride with Latin America's top showjumper, Nicolás Pizarro Suarez, to learn about the importance of discipline, intuition and instinct in showjumping. We'll enter his stables and talk about gut feeling and how both rider and horse must show courage and daring when navigating challenging courses. We'll also hear about the horses' own personalities, the thrill of the showjumping arena and how friendship with an animal and a strong emotional bond between rider and horse can make the minds and hearts of both horse and rider tune up in a fraction of a second when problems arise in completing a course. Nicolás Pizarro is an Olympic showjumping rider highly regarded figure in the equestrian community, admired for his personal qualities as well as his expertise in training and mentoring. He is recognized as one of the world's top riders and has a proven track record in developing talented and dedicated riders into international champions.

We invite you to join us as we embark on an exploration of the art of decision-making with Dr. Gary Klein, a leading figure in the field of psychology and a pioneer in the domain of Naturalistic Decision Making (NDM). Over the course of his career, Dr. Klein has conducted extensive research, which has significantly impacted our understanding of decision-making under pressure. His work draws upon the experiences of military commanders, firefighters, doctors, and pilots who have demonstrated the ability to remain calm and make critical choices under stress. This episode is essential listening for anyone seeking to enhance their decision-making abilities and leverage the potential of expert thinking. It offers an opportunity for listeners to gain insight into how Dr. Klein's innovative methods facilitate the development of expertise amongst professionals, encourage the transformation of human error into valuable insights, and cultivate an environment of openness and transparency within organizational structures. Don´t miss the opportunity to learn from one of the most esteemed figures in psychology, praised by the late Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman, who wrote "There should be more psychologists like him" and see for yourself why Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers and Blink, makes perfect sense when he says: "I know of no one who combines theory and observation – intellectual rigor and painstaking observation of the real world – so brilliantly and gracefully as Gary Klein". *Dr. Gary A. Klein is a distinguished researcher and thought leader in the field of decision-making. He currently holds the position of Senior Scientist at MacroCognition LLC and is the Founder and Chief Scientist at Shadow Box LLC. https://www.gary-klein.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/shadowboxtraining/ https://www.youtube.com/@shadowboxtrainingllc https://www.shadowboxtraining.com/our-team/people/gklein/ http://www.macrocognition.com/about-us/gary-klein.html Finally, useful tips for better and faster decision-making! https://mailchi.mp/11b82ef9015d/freegift

Dr. Gary A. Klein, a cognitive psychologist known for his work in naturalistic decision-making, shares fascinating insights on decision-making under pressure. He discusses the essential role of intuition and gut feelings, illustrated through a gripping example from Operation Desert Storm. Klein differentiates between intuition and insight, explaining how experts harness their experiences to make informed decisions. He also delves into how AI can enhance human decision-making rather than replace it, all while highlighting the evolution of his groundbreaking theories.

The Talmud teaches us that neither man nor beast can survive without a liver. In his lamentations, Jeremiah laments, "My eyes are tired of weeping, my intestines are burning, my liver has been spilled over the earth." In Greek mythology, the liver was considered to be the seat of life for both gods and humans. It is said that Prometheus, who was punished by Zeus for giving mankind the Olympic fire, had his liver eaten daily by an eagle. However, it is also said that his liver grew back every night. It would seem that the Greeks did not fully comprehend the regenerative properties of the liver, yet they were able to encapsulate its essence symbolically. Similarly, it is thought that Etruscan oracles could 'read' the future in a sheep's liver. In art, the suffering of Christ is often depicted with a wound on the right side, which is where the liver is located. This symbolism is thought to represent the duality of salvation, associated with the qualities of good and evil. "Indeed, it would appear that the right side was chosen in order to fulfil the prophecy of the Old Testament." All of this is documented in the book "Prometheus and the Liver through Art and Medicine", a fascinating multidisciplinary publication co-authored by Thomas M. van Gulik, a highly esteemed hepatobiliary surgeon and researcher globally, who is currently Professor Emeritus of Surgery at the Amsterdam University Medical Center in the Netherlands. We are honored to have him as our guest for this remarkable episode. You are warmly invited to join us for an enlightening session with Professor van Gulik. We will have the privilege of learning from him about liver resection and regeneration, as well as exploring other wonders of the human liver and the latest advances produced by science. From ancient times, the myth of Prometheus has held a special place in the collective imagination. From the humours of Hippocrates to Vesalius, the story has continued to resonate, inspiring scientists and artists alike. As Professor van Gulik notes, the tale reminds us of the regenerative power of the liver and the enduring significance of Prometheus' fate in motivating us to advance, create and serve humanity. The book 'Prometheus and the liver; through art and medicine', is available as free e-book at library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/53539 The story of the Etruscan oracles has now also been published online by Hektoen International: *The following link would make it easier for listeners to read the reference. https://hekint.org/2024/09/23/anatomical-correlation-of-the-bronze-liver-of-piacenza-with-fresh-sheep-livers/ Prof. Thomas van Gulik’s academic profile: https://researchinformation.amsterdamumc.org/en/persons/thomas-van-gulik
