  • How Global Uncertainty Shapes Trade: Prof. Isaac Baley Unpacks His Research
    Prof. Isaac Baley, Associate Professor of Economics at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Associated Researcher at CREI, and Affiliated Professor at the Barcelona School of Economics, shares key insights from his research, Can Global Uncertainty Promote International Trade?
    Contrary to common belief, uncertainty can actually boost trade. In a general equilibrium trade model with information frictions, rising uncertainty increases both the mean and variance of export returns. Whether trade grows or shrinks depends on preferences, but under general conditions, higher uncertainty improves terms of trade, especially when consumption is most valuable. Trade also enhances risk-sharing, which is most effective when both parties lack information.
    Prof. Baley is also a Research Affiliate of Centre for Economic Policy Research. His research focuses on understanding decision-making in environments with microeconomic frictions (for example, information frictions, search frictions, irreversibilities, and adjustment costs) and its broader macroeconomic implications. His work explores diverse areas, including firms' pricing and investment strategies, monetary policy, international trade, and labor markets. He co-authored the book "The Data Economy" published this year by Princeton University Press and jointly written with Prof. Laura Veldkamp (who was featured in Business Talk, Episode 76).
    Before transitioning to academia, Prof. Baley served as an economic advisor to the Mexican Ministries of Economics and Finance, where he played a key role in developing policies aimed at improving access to financial markets. Prof. Isaac Baley earned his PhD in Economics from New York University and a Master’s in Economic Theory from The Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico.

  • How Asians and Westerners Think Differently? Prof. Richard Nisbett Explains
    Prof. Richard Nisbett, Theodore M. Newcomb Distinguished University Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Research Professor Emeritus at the Research Center for Group Dynamics, Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan, shares insights from his widely acclaimed book, The Geography of Thought: How Asians and Westerners Think Differently.
    In this thought-provoking work, Prof. Nisbett explores the fundamental cognitive differences between Eastern and Western cultures, shedding light on how history, philosophy, and social structures shape the way people perceive, reason, and make decisions. His insights offer valuable perspectives on cultural intelligence, decision-making, and global collaboration.
    Prof. Nisbett's research focuses on culture and reasoning, examining fundamental cognitive processes such as induction, statistical reasoning, causal attribution, cost-benefit analysis, and logical versus dialectical approaches to problem-solving. His work explores the extent to which cognitive processes can be trained and the differences between East Asian and Western reasoning styles. Additionally, he has studied awareness of cognitive processes and lay personality theory.
    One of Dr. Richard Nisbett’s most influential publications is "Telling More Than We Can Know: Verbal Reports on Mental Processes" (co-authored with T.D. Wilson, 1977, Psychological Review, 84, 231–259). This seminal work, cited over 13,000 times, was the first comprehensive, empirically based argument that many mental processes underlying preferences, choices, and emotions are inaccessible to conscious awareness. Dr. Nisbett and Dr. Wilson asserted that introspective reports reveal only what people think about how they think, rather than how they actually think. This claim sparked debate among cognitive psychologists, with Ericsson and Simon (1980) offering an alternative perspective.
    Dr. Richard earned his A.B. in Psychology from Tufts University in 1962 and his Ph.D. in Social Psychology from Columbia University in 1966, where he was advised by Stanley Schachter, alongside fellow students Lee Ross and Judith Rodin.
    Dr. Richard Nisbett has received numerous prestigious accolades for his contributions to psychology and social science. He won the Donald T. Campbell Award (1982) and the APA’s Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award (1991). Elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1992) and the National Academy of Sciences (2002), he also received the William James Fellow Award (1996) and the Oswald-Külpe Award (2007). His impact was further recognized with the Distinguished Senior Scientist Award (1995) and a Wei Lun Visiting Professorship (1995) at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Prof. Richard has been honored with the John W. Burgess Honorary Fellowship (1964), University Fellowship (1962-1963), President’s Fellowship (1963-1965), and NSF Fellowship (1965-1966). In 2021, Stanford University recognized him among the World's Top 2% Scientists.
    In an interview with The New York Times, Malcolm Gladwell stated, "The most influential thinker in my life has been the psychologist, Richard Nisbett. He basically gave me my view of the world."

  • Dr. Richard Straub on Peter Drucker’s Legacy: Management as a Force for Societal Progress
    Dr. Richard Straub, Founder & President of the Global Peter Drucker Forum, Vienna, shares invaluable insights from Peter F. Drucker’s legacy in our podcast episode on Management as a Catalyst for Societal Progress: Lessons from Peter Drucker’s Legacy.
    About Peter F. Drucker: Peter F. Drucker (1909–2005) was an Austrian-American management consultant, educator, and author who shaped modern management theory. He pioneered concepts like management by objectives and ‘managing oneself’ and advocated for management as a liberal art. He is one of the best-known and most widely influential thinkers and writers on the subject of management theory and practice.
    About Global Peter Drucker Forum: The 1st Global Peter Drucker Forum, held in Vienna on Nov 19-20, 2009, marked Drucker’s centenary. Organized by the Drucker Society of Austria, it featured speakers like C.K. Prahalad, Charles Handy, Joseph Maciariello, Rick Warren and Philip Kotler. Doris Drucker (Peter’s widow), then 97, urged building on Peter’s ideals rather than creating a museum of his work. Subsequent favorable coverage from global media - Harvard Business Review, The Economist, The Financial Times, Forbes and Les Echos, to name a few - turned the autumn forum in Vienna into what Les Echos called the “Davos of Management” - an essential date in the management calendar. The Drucker Forum is committed to quality in all its aspects: speakers and content, organization, facilities, networking, interactivity, personal exchange and internationality. As Charles Handy put it: “The Drucker Forum is a party, but a party with a purpose.” For more information about the event, please visit, www.druckerforum.org
    About Dr. Richard Straub: After a 32-year career at IBM where Dr. Straub held various executive positions including those of Chief Learning Officer and Deputy General Manager for the European IBM PC business, Dr. Richard Straub jointly with his wife, Ilse founded the Global Peter Drucker Forum in 2009. The inaugural conference was held that year to honor Dr. Peter Drucker on what would have been his 100th birthday. The Forum is now in its 16th year and has become a globally recognized platform and reference for advancing the practice of management. In 2024 Dr. Richard Straub announced a flagship initiative spanning the five years to the 20th Forum in 2028 to reframe and renew management for the 21st century, under the title “The Next Management”.
