The Age of Uncertainty -Dr Vikram Mansharamani

Ep 335 - The Age of Uncertainty

Guest: Dr. Vikram Mansharamani 

 

When you cast your eyes out over the horizon, do you see storm clouds rising? When you do, what is your response? Do you rely on insights from experts and technology or do you think for yourself? Do you have a default reaction to threats or do you employ a multidisciplinary approach?

 

These are valid questions especially after the year we all have endured. Nothing is as it was, which begs the question – how do you prepare for what may be? According to Harvard lecturer Dr. Vikram Mansharamani, you have to connect dots and think for yourself. He says, “Generalists may be better suited to navigate ambiguous situations than specialists.”

 

The key, he says, is to learn how to anticipate the future, manage risk and spot opportunities. In his book, “Think For Yourself,” he urges a return to common sense. He says, “You have to look at each situation through a variety of lenses. Some are financial. Others include a technological perspective as well as changing demographics, to name a few.”

 

We invited Dr. Vikram Mansharamani to join us for a Conversation That Matters on how to navigate uncertainty.
