Episode description
WHAT IF ... there’s a better way
to make decisions every day?
WHAT IF, just by developing a few simple
yet effective rules, you can tackle even
the most complex problems?
Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Kathy Eisenhardt,
co-author with Don Sull, of SIMPLE RULES:
How to Thrive in a Complex World - discovers these
guiding insights in unexpected places, from the way
Tina Fey codified her experience working at Saturday Night Live into rules for producing 30 Rock
(rule five: never tell a crazy person he’s crazy)
to burglars’ rules to choose a house to rob
(“avoid houses with a car parked outside”)
to Japanese engineers using the foraging rules
of slime molds to optimize Tokyo’s rail system.
Whether you’re working to be a better manager or investor, trying to get your start-up off the ground,
or get in shape, or get a date, SIMPLE RULES can serve
as powerful tools to tame complexity.
Join Julie Ann and Kathy to discover how you
can craft clear framework for developing quick
and easy rules for solving personal
and professional challenges.
