Co-founder and CEO of Populace and ex-Harvard professor, Todd Rose, joins us for this week's episode of Big Ideas Book Club! Todd Rose is the author of “Collective Illusions”, which dissects how our brains are more socially dependent than we realize or dare to accept. People naturally end up adopting ideas to please the people around them, which creates a false polarization within society. This is especially true when our brains assume the loudest voices that are repeated are actually the majority, when statistically speaking half of Americans admit to self-silencing. Todd and I discuss how these human tendencies play a part in the policies and political ideologies we see today being reflected in society. This is a fascinating and insightful conversation you won’t want to miss!
