  • Opinions: Ally or Enemy

    In today’s episode, we discuss when opinions can be helpful, and when they can be harmful.

    Mentioned in today's episode
    • When opinions are a good thing:
      • When the evidence for a given topic is inaccessible or doesn't exist
      • When the person with the opinion has significant experiential knowledge
      • When the subject of the work is primarily representative of a person's opinion or expression
      • When are opinions a bad thing?
        • When an opinion is positioned as an objective truth.
        • When the opinion of an individual devalues any other individual's perspective without objective reasoning
        • When opinion is used as a substitute for research.
