The Art of Insubordination with Todd Kashdan
The Art of Insubordination with Todd Kashdan
Effective dissent looks like encouragement and collaboration for the good of many, but how do we get there? Sharon speaks with psychologist, Dr. Todd Kashdan, about the ways in which insubordination can be an effective and valuable way to make the change you want to see in the world. Change does not always happen as an immediate result from going against the status quo, but it does open up others to the idea that there is more than one way to do something. It is healthy to welcome dissent into our lives and into our homes because it makes us realize that our perspectives are not the only approach to finding effective solutions.
