Episode Details

Richard Barrett In his latest book, The Metrics of Human Consciousness, Richard delves into what consciousness is and how it can be quantified in order to significantly improve our individual, organizational, and societal performance.

Is human consciousness something we can measure? What good would it do if we could?

We chat about the different levels and stages of measurement and survival. Richard explains cultural entropy and how we can become value driven. Darren takes the Personal Value Assessment during the show.

History has shown that the evolution of measurement is the key to the evolution of societies, something we take for granted since most of our measurements are already standardized. Richard Barrett believes that we are missing one very important standardized measurement– human consciousness.

By creating psychological measurement technologies, Richard believes that we can change the conversation not just about what exists, but what we need to move to in order to resolve the current issues our global society is facing.
