Join them as they discuss the nuances of simplicity and complexity, the role of emotion in design, and the importance of paying attention to what lies in the periphery.

Tune in to gain a better understanding of the power of simplicity and how it can be harnessed to create impactful and meaningful products and experiences.

Noise

Season 6 · Episode 328

Thursday, July 8, 2021 • Duration 37:05

In this book, Kahneman, Sibony, and Sunstein break down the concept of noise in human judgement and how it impacts our society.

Medicine is noisy. Faced with the same patient, different doctors make different judgments about the diagnosis.

Forecasts are noisy. Professional forecasters offer highly variable predictions. Whether it's about the popularity of a new product, the change in the unemployment rate, the likelihood of bankruptcy of a particular company, or the results of the next election.

Asylum decisions are noisy. Whether an asylum seeker will be admitted to the United States is like a lottery of which judge you get – some judges granted 5% of cases while others granted 88% of cases.

Wherever you look at human judgements, you are likely to find noises. In real-world decisions, the amount of noise is often scandalously high. So, to improve the quality of our judgments, we need to not only overcome bias but also overcome noise.

Thursday, July 1, 2021 • Duration 32:17

Man's Search For Meaning - by Victor E Frankl

We find ourselves in middle of World War II. Frankl had been captured by the Germans and is in a concentration camp. "Every man was controlled by one thought only: to keep himself alive for the family waiting for him at home". This is a dark book and highlights the atrocities of the time, but also shows us that terrible things happen when we lose a sense of meaning in our lives.

Lean Startup

Season 5 · Episode 323

Sunday, April 25, 2021 • Duration 23:55

The Lean Startup - by Eric Ries

'How constant innovation creates radically successful businesses'

If you've ever created your own business, or tried to, you will probably see in hindsight that you wasted a lot of resources, be that time, money, or energy and effort. 'The Lean Startup' is a different approach to building a business. In every idea, you have 'leap of faith' assumptions. Rather than assuming you're right, you should build a 'minimum viable product'. This MVP is the smallest and simplest thing you can make that replicates the features of your desired end product that will allow you to TEST your assumptions before committing to the project. If you're right, you 'persevere' and continue to build out your offering ad test the next phase. If you're wrong, you can 'pivot' and make changes before it's too late.

The First 90 Days

Season 5 · Episode 322

Saturday, April 17, 2021 • Duration 27:37

The First 90 Days is effective to help new leaders — from first-time managers to CEOs — understand the skills and factors that ease the transition process of their leadership journey. A long career at a single company is increasingly becoming a history. Employees usually experience many transitions, especially those in leadership roles. The ability to adjust quickly and effectively into a new role has become a critical skill to thrive in your career.

If the president of the United States gets 100 days to prove himself, you get about 90 days.

Every new leader needs to become quickly familiar with the new organisation to secure wins and build supportive coalitions. And this book provides guidelines for translating these principles to fit your own situation.
