We live in a world of rising uncertainty. We live in a world where there’s an abundance of information that is impossible to sort through, add to that the fact that many leaders, including you dear listener, are griding, hustling, going 200KM per hour, simply put, there is a lot to do, and very little time to do it, so many of us don’t have time to sort through information, to analyze what is presented to us. What do we do? We outsource our thinking to gurus and experts. We turn to them for solutions, advice, for counsel. This practice of outsourcing our thinking has weakened our ability to think for ourselves, and in this complex world, a leader must be able to think for themselves. And so in today’s podcast, we will explore the perils of outsourcing your thinking and breaking down how we can reclaim our power and develop an ability to think for ourselves. I am joined by Vikram Mansharamani, the author of the recently-released THINK FOR YOURSELF: Restoring Common Sense in an Age of Experts and Artificial Intelligence and BOOMBUSTOLOGY: Spotting Financial Bubbles Before They Burst.Here is a link to his workhttp://www.mansharamani.com
