Experience brings perspective, but in your eagerness to inject fresh thinking, you might just be making a whole lot more work for yourself. Stand on the shoulders of those giants who bring wisdom and have already climbed so many decision trees and know which branches lead to dead ends in what circumstances. This episode explores why it's important to stay curious and value both inductive and deductive processes.
- Experience is what you've lived, your perspective and differentiator. You don't need expertise for your experience to have value. This is why we need lots of seats at the table.
- Expertise is not just what you know - it;s the ability to selectively apply skills and tools to discern and adapt. Without it, you can reinvent way too many wheels or make costly mistakes by not understanding implications of decisions.
- The beginner's mind learns from feedback while the liability of expertise is threatened by feedback. Merging both inductive and deductive thinking let's us stay curious, ask better questions and get better solutions faster.
- Be vulnerable enough to ask questions and share the lessons you've learned. A lot gets lost when assumptions get made.
- Provide psychological safety for those with less expertise to share experience and an environment of respect for those that have it.
