Innovation 2.0: The Influence You Have
Think about the last time you asked someone for something. Maybe you were nervous or worried about what the person would think of you. Chances are that you didn’t stop to think about the pressure you were exerting on that person. This week, we continue our Innovation 2.0 series with a 2020 episode about a phenomenon known as as “egocentric bias.” We talk with psychologist Vanessa Bohns about how this bias leads us astray, and how we can use this knowledge to ask for the things we need.

Innovation 2.0: Multiplying the Growth Mindset
Have you ever been in a situation where you felt that people wrote you off?

Thoughtful
I listen to a lot of podcasts, and this is often among the most thoughtful of the bunch.
I like this podcast a lot but…
This is one of my favorite podcasts but recently I’ve noticed many of the episodes are reruns of the old episodes. I hope they indicate that clearly in the beginning of each of such episodes like most other podcasts do these days.
Common courtesy words no more..?
I love this show. Always thought-provoking, excellent reporting, production, fact-checking, etc.
BUT...it really bothers me that even at this level of excellence, you cannot take the time to say, “Please.” E.g. you often SAY to your subjects, “Tell is how...,” “Explain why...,” “Give us some examples of..,” and so on. Would it be so bad to say “please” once in a while at least? Too old school?
