Good episode about to analyze the risk which is to be taken by smart people in the organization. The 5-step research-based strategy to find the risk and revel in front of the team is really nice concept. We could secure the organization from long term lose with adopting this strategy.

Emotional and social intelligence have been the subject of much discussion. Now I understand why some of my acquaintances doubt the existence of such grave dangers. While reading this post, I've become enlightened. It's definitely something to share!

If we place value on our emotions, we will understand that positive reinforcement is what drives our decision making. Smart people often fall victims to denying serious risks. Thanks for sharing!

This is happening and smart people don't even notice it. It's good that this topic is discussed as some people who are not smart but are thinking of being one can learn about this discussion.

Thank you for sharing this epsiode that talks about emotional intelligence. We really need to have strong mental state and emotional intelligence to be able to address the risk of denialism. Overcoming our instinct and develop the skill of processing negative information.

Helpful podcast! I have learned a lot from this podcast and I believe it will help me to avoid cognitive biases like Ostrich Effect. Thank you for sharing such an informative podcast and giving us a 5 steps research strategy called EGRIP to defend ourselves from cognitive biases. I truly appreciate it.
