TẬP 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.

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.

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.

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..

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.

No Bread? Let them Eat [AI generated] Cake!

We live in a moment where content is being produced faster than we can blink. But much of it feels a bit like junk food for the mind — easy to make, easy to consume, and ultimately… not very nourishing. The kind of thing that fills the feed but leaves you strangely unsatisfied, as if you’ve eaten an entire bag of digital empty calories.Together with guest Itai Bichler, AI philosopher, public speaker and former Chief Creative Officer at Soda Stream, we dive into the question of intent, taste and agency.

Rabbits Chase. Turtles Choose. (feat. Omer Milwidsky)

Rabbits chase signals. They move fast because they’re afraid to stop. Turtles choose direction. They move deliberately because they know where they’re going. One is driven by FOMO. The other by conviction. Together with renowned digital transformation expert Omer Milwidsky, we unpack why real innovation rarely looks urgent in the moment, and why building something meaningful requires the confidence to move slower than the crowd.

The Paradox of Belonging - Feat. Danny Gal

We talk about climate change, war, and pandemics—but beneath them all lies a deeper challenge: the empathy crisis. In an age of constant connection, we are losing the ability to truly listen and understand one another. Fear, misinformation, and polarization are reshaping how we belong—and who we exclude. In this episode of Unfounded, we explore how our search for identity can deepen division, why empathy is eroding across societies and organizations, and what it will take to rebuild understanding in a fractured world. 🎙️ Featuring Danny Gal, author of The Paradox of Belonging:https://www.amazon.com/Belonging-Paradox-Global-Empathy-Crisis/dp/1917391145
