Barry Schwartz - The Store Does Not Take Care of Itself

I see podcasting as the discovery of surprises. I’m not in charge, just a part of. My conversation with Barry Schwartz ([email protected]) is a luge ride, full speed and switching the role of top slider (the one who signals the turn) and the bottom driver (the one who makes the turn) throughout. Here’s some of where we went: 

                                                                       dogged attachment 

                                                            uncertainty and probability 

                                                                the curse of knowledge 

                                               vaccinations and shopping for groceries

                                                  organ donations and social altruism

                                               drunk driving, smoking, and MADD

                                                                freedom and security 

                                                                  confidence intervals 

                                                                           cynicism

Barry’s book, Why We Work, is a great read. His TED talk, https://www.ted.com/talks/barry_schwartz_the_way_we_think_about_work_is_broken, a luge ride you’ll not forget. Grab some water, dress warmly, and join us for The Store Does Not Take Care of Itself. 

 Thank you, Barry.
