Episode 195 Published 4 years, 11 months ago
Description

David Bodanis is an author who joins me on the podcast to discuss the notion of fairness and why being fair is an art. It's a subject that David has explored at length in his book The Art of Fairness and in this conversation we discuss:

  • Why nice guys finish last.
  • Why it's unfortunate that being a 'slimy jerk' can actually get you far in life.
  • What you get in return when you encourage and enable the people around you.
  • Why power is so seductive but can easily slip into arrogance.
  • The importance of listening without ego.
  • Why generosity shouldn't be confused with niceness.
  • The lessons we learned from Faust and Wall Street.
  • Why, if we assume the world is fair, we'll be disappointed.
  • Why being fair to yourself first is the way to spread fairness and much more...
