The Occupational Philosophers - A not-so-serious business podcast to spark Creativity, Imagination and Curiosity

Ep.58: Inbetweeners - If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room

Listen Later

In this short, sharp Inbetweener episode, The Occupational Philosophers, turn their attention to meditations, or well-known philosophical quotations which may offer some insights into how we work, play and collaborate together. In this episode,  they explore:

  • The quotation attributed to Confucius, “If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room’
  • How ensuring you have diversity of thought in your ‘room’ is key to problem-solving and creative thinking
  • Why changing the word ‘room’ to ‘meeting’ may offer a very practical way to challenge yourself before any group discussion
  • And why ‘smart’ doesn’t just mean IQ

    • FYI: The Inbetweeners episodes are just that - smaller episodes 'in between' the longer format episodes designed to give a little kickstart to enable you to be the most curious, creative and imaginative cat you can be - and have some fun in the process.
