Groupthink – How to Recognize it and Break Out
Send us a text
In this episode I explore how a famous experiment in 1951 reveals the danger of herd mentality and talk about the ways we are being influenced by it today. I dive into the subtle signs of herd mentality—like blind agreement and self-censorship—and how it traps us in comfort over truth, from workplaces to social media. Offering practical steps, I share how curiosity, diverse perspectives, and self-reflection can break free from this mental cage, fostering personal growth and authenticity, with wisdom from Nietzsche, JFK, and Steve Jobs underlining the point.
