Making People More Receptive With Presuasion with Robert Cialdini Nov 21, 2016

Show notes

I think what we have to do is begin with the strength of our message. We go to our content and decide what it is that is really the strongest feature of what we have to have offer. What’s the strength of what we have to offer? Is it reliability? Is it price? Is it comfort? Is it stability? Is it durability? What is it? Then, we go the moment before deliver that message and bring people’s attention to that concept whatever it is. That will make them receptive to the strength of our message – Robert Cialdini

Show notes

On some level we’ve totally neglected primal communication.Cesar Milan can’t communicate with a dog with words. We’ve neglected that there’s an entire conversation happening between bodies that you can not speak over. You can talk talk talk, say powerful things, say disempowering things, do whatever you want. But you can’t neglect that level of communication – Kasia Urbaniak

Getting Your Creative Ideas Out Into The World with Peter Himmelman Nov 14, 2016

Show notes

“What are you telling me that can help me own life? In some ways that comes down to a beautiful axiom about living, which is: What exactly are you doing on the planet? What are you doing for other people? how are you being generous with your resources, skills, and experiences? For me, when I see people lit up by things I talk about, like the music that I play, and they go off and do things by themselves, and it inspires them, that to me gives me goosebumps. It’s the most beautiful thing like a flame. You can extinguish it, but it can also be infinitely renewable by lighting up other people” – Peter Himmelman

The Middleman Economy by Marina Krakovsky Nov 02, 2016

Show notes

The way I started thinking about middlemen initially was this very simple definition: the person who connects buyers and sellers in a marketplace. In my reporting I actually came across a more expansive and smarter definition. This came from a VC in the valley named Mike Maples. And he says “a middleman in a network is that node in a network that connects other nodes to increase the value of the network.” That’s looking at it from a more positive view and it’s obviously a network view. It’s really looking at the value of the person who is making those connections because not all middlemen can create value or can increase the value of the network. Even if they do they don’t necessarily help both parties enough to justify their cost. I really like that positive angle. Also, it’s so expansive that it goes beyond buyers and sellers. If I know somebody who I think you should meet, I can make that introduction. I’m a middleman who has improved the value of my network by making both people hopefully better off. – Marina Krakovsky

Inside the Psychology of Cults with Bob Gower Oct 31, 2016

Show notes

In classic cult psychology or cult literature, there’s really two characteristics to a cult. First is that it’s ideologically intense and of course that can describe a lot of organizations. Everything from say something like the Landmark forum to the United States of America. We have an ideology that sits behind the organization. In order to be a part of the US government you have to adopt a certain kind of ideology. There’s this idea that we have an ideology. And cults for that reason pray on people like myself who really want to make the world a better place, want to change the world or feel dissatisfied in some way. There can be political cults. There are quite a few of those out there. There can be spiritual cults. There can be even commercial cults. Real estate is apparently a really common place right now where you find people who are learning how to flip houses and do all this stuff. And they began to develop these really intense ideology around how they approach the world and how they see the world. – Bob Gower

Since 2010, Bob Gower has been a coach and consultant, helping apply agile and lean principles at companies like Ford, Travelers, SunTrust, and GE.

How Great Organizations do Ordinary Things in Extraordinary Ways with Bill Taylor Oct 26, 2016

Show notes

I’ve become absolutely convinced, when we look at how innovation happens inside organizations or how individuals come up with interesting ideas, where such powerful insights come from the most unexpected places. And the way leaders increase the chances for those insights or innovations to happen is when they can put lots and lots of people from lots of different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives together. And develop this architecture of participation where people who wouldn’t otherwise be talking or otherwise wouldn’t be on a project team, people who otherwise wouldn’t be in the same room are in fact in the same room. It’s amazing the kind of insights that can pop out. I think that way of going through life is a much more enriching and rewarding way of going through life. – Bill Taylor

Reinventing the American Dream with Courtney Martin Oct 24, 2016

Show notes

In terms of of the new definition of success, at its most basic we have previously defined the American dream as one individual creating wealth. And usually we define that monetarily, for themselves and their family. So this is everything from the white picket fence and all of your needs are met within it to having a job that has a very clear trajectory, straight up the ladder, and you get all the glory and it’s all about your individual hard work and giftedness. I think that what i’m trying to argue for is breaking apart that whole idea that success is an individual pursuit and instead thinking of success as interdependent pursuit that is about the quality of life that you can create by doing work that you find meaningful that allows you to earn enough money by creating community around you, whether that’s where you live or in cowering spaces, but really having this sense that wealth is most accurately expressed through your relationships. The more people that you have deep, genuine and even daily relationships with, the safer you’ll be and probably the healthier and happier you’ll be too. – Courtney Martin
