Think Bigger, Think Better podcast - with Paul Gibbons

Think Bigger, Think Better: Business, Science, Philosophy, and Our Human Future The Think Bigger, Think Better podcast asks the question How can contemporary philosophy and science help us make better choices, lead better lives, and create a sustainable, prosperous world? Humans, since the time of the Pyramids, have done amazing things when they lift their gaze from the egocentric, the petty, and the mundane. We, in the business world, don’t do that nearly enough, focusing instead on launching the 500th kind of toothpaste, or on financial “innovations” that add risk to the global financial system. Humans also struggle to make good decisions, particularly today when we are swamped with information of highly variable, sometimes dodgy quality. We need to understand our biases, to think critically, to use reason, to see through subterfuge and deception. In THINK BIGGER THINK BETTER, we talk to world leaders in their fields, who have great ideas on how we can be more reasoned and rational, and how we can inspire each other to greatness. Guests will be famous academics, politicians, NYT bestselling authors, business CEOs, and activists. Your host, Paul Gibbons, founded one of the world's top leadership boutiques, Future Considerations, before moving to the US where he is a professor of Business Ethics and Leadership and author of The Science of Organizational Change. Before that, he was a derivatives trader, and a strategy consultant with PricewaterhouseCoopers.
