SHOW NOTES:
- [00:43] Today I am very excited to introduce you to Dr. Agnis Stibe, a 4x TEDx speaker, MIT alum, YouTube creator, globally recognized corporate consultant, and scientific advisor.
- [03:19] Agnis shares about himself, his background, and the really fascinating work he does. He is passionate about helping people, teams, organizations, and societies to get where they want to get.
- [04:17] It is our counterproductive psychology that is oftentimes our roadblock to our own success and happiness.
- [07:22] Awareness is number one. Once awareness is there, then there has to be a degree of willingness.
- [09:33] Not everything is worth coming up the “Slope of Enlightenment.”
- [10:23] We have access to the same curiosity throughout our lives. The question is do we allow ourselves to be using it?
- [12:31] He encourages people to take away unnecessary bias before they start a conversation about AI.
- [14:13] Together we are on a journey and the only obstacles are our human biases.
- [15:32] Agnis shares some success stories.
- [17:15] After five meetings using their transparent system, everyone was on time.
- [18:18] Melina’s second book What Your Employees Need and Can’t Tell You comes out in October 2022.
- [20:11] Many people don’t want to see themselves in comparison with others on the same screen, but that is their resistance speaking.
- [22:02] Technology takes away the bias. It is a more reliable perspective that it makes existing patterns more transparent and visible.
- [23:51] Agnis shares about The Littery and his role with it.
- [26:32] They amplified the effects of that solution by adding a social layer. Technology also played a role in making things more transparent.
- [28:28] Humans over our evolution have gained a lot and we have lost some essential awareness of who we are.
- [30:42] Thanks to technology we get a deeper and clearer perspective of who we are.
- [33:19] Technology has huge impacts. There is bias towards technology.
- [34:34] Agnis’ hypothesis: technology is perceived by an average human being the same way an average human being perceives another human being.
- [36:28] Everything we experience with technology is giving us an opportunity to look at ourselves – the more technology the closer and deeper we see ourselves.
- [38:24] The STIBE Method has ten tools split among three major stages.
- [39:55] Most of the time the problem with failed solutions is that there is not enough awareness of the problem.
- [41:33] The final and crucial phase is to make assurance for long-term success.
- [45:33] Melina shares her closing thoughts.
- [45:45] The impact of social proof can change when it is made more visible and there is a record.
- [50:04] Thank you again to everyone who has subscribed, rated, and left those five-star reviews of the podcast. I appreciate you and please keep them coming.
