Cognitive Skills for Navigating Change
In this 60-minute interactive session, Pranay makes the compelling argument that successfully navigating change requires us to develop some specific cognitive skills: thinking deliberately, thinking differently, and thinking dangerously. Drawing on his background as a professor of philosophy, Pranay distils ground-breaking research and cutting-edge insights, for example from the work of Nobel Prize-winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman, into practical tools, processes, and insights that transform abstract ideas into actionable strategies.
