Unfounded - David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli

Unfounded is a weekly podcast for business and creative leaders who look beyond the bottom line. Hosted by David Laxer and Ofir Michaeli, 2 creative strategists with vast international experience, the podcast seeks to challenge conventions, tackle herd mentality and fight the abuse of industry buzzwords and lingo that often hide lack of vision and originality.

  1. פרק 1

    The Good Enough Mindset

    We explore the question of speed and its effect on executive decision-making, and how more than ever a flexible, open-minded mindset is what can help executives navigate the stormy waters and help companies stand out in a sea of sameness. David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli dive into the overlooked impact of AI: the ‘good enough’ mindset; flattening the conversation, making executives ask the wrong questions and enslaving companies with a reactive mindset that drives them to pick up the latest playbook, and fills them with a hunger for ineffective formulas.

    פרק 2

    The System is Rigged

    We explore how greatness has become a dirty word in the world of business, and trace the origins to the consultancy world that is predicated on playing it safe, solving problems that aren’t always there and promoting the ultimate anti-innovation slogan of cutting edge=bleeding edge. David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli dive into the stark contrast of Problem vs Potential, and how greatness is not the evolution of very good, but a radically different by-product. Together, they present a new roadmap that requires the tossing out of playbooks and the adoption of a more fluid and creative mindset.

    פרק 3

    Big Data. Small Thinking.

    No one can argue the value of good data. Good data lets us make better informed and well founded decisions. It has revolutionized how businesses operate across every industry and throughout every executive position. But there is a dark side to data. It often causes leaders to fall in love with it; to blindly follow and stop asking the right questions. David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli dive into the blindspots of big data and tackle the issue from an unexpected perspective -- its effect on innovation, leadership and true creativity. Together, they explore the limitations of a data-driven mindset and present a more balanced approach to the complexities of decision making.

    פרק 7

    The Paradox of Productivity

    Never has it been easier to create entire worlds at the click of your fingers. Yet this burst of productivity masks a real danger lurking beneath -- what will happen when we collectively lose our ability to think, or if our audience will no longer be able to distinguish between A & B. David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli dive into a number of phenomena such as the Originality Illusion, the Blindspot of Taste, the Death of Difficulty and the Context Gap, all side-effects of the Great New Wonderful AI revolution..

    פרק 8

    A Question of Character

    Business visionaries and leaders come in all shapes and colors, but there is a clear thread that runs through the stories of many of the great ones. It is one that goes beyond just the question of success, track record, critical thinking and decision making. After more than 2 decades of sitting with a wide range of founders and CEOs, David Laxer & Ofir Michaeli share a wealth of anecdotes that transcend the tangible qualities one must possess, and touches upon the intangible yet ever-important quality of character.
