ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
You're in a limbo moment — the in-between where the old hasn't ended and the new hasn't started. And without realizing it, you're about to pull for a shortcut. It feels decisive. It is not.
Chris McAlister goes live every Wednesday at noon Eastern. This week is episode 4 of September's Limbo Moments series. After last week's move — dropping the grievance and releasing the if-then arrangement — this episode hits the mental mechanism that kicks in when you're stuck in the in-between: the shortcut. It shows up as a lie to avoid embarrassment, as impatience on a storm-grounded tarmac, as a control move when you can't stand the waiting. Chris breaks down 3 truths that help you pause the shortcut reflex and cooperate with what the limbo moment is actually trying to grow in you.

ДРУГИЕ ЭПИЗОДЫ В ЭТОМ ПОДКАсте
AI will not make you a better leader. For most people it will make them dumber, by quietly taking over the one thing that made them worth following in the first place.
Dr. Chris McAlister and co-host Mark Stanifer get into the human capacity AI can never replace: phronesis, the hard fought wisdom …
You can replace your human assistant with AI. What you can’t replace is the human who knows where to draw the line. Chris opens with his own swap — and a book that changes the calculus.
