Win Hearts, Then Minds

O tym odcinku

<p>There’s a saying that’s attributed to the Dalai Lama: in the practice of tolerance, one’s enemy is the best teacher. It’s a nice idea. But when people don’t share our values, it’s hard for us to tolerate theirs. This week, we bring you a favorite episode with sociologist <a href="https://sociology.stanford.edu/people/robb-willer" target="_blank">Robb Willer.</a> We discuss the common mistakes we make in trying to persuade others of our point of view — and how to break out of our echo chambers. Then, Kenji Yoshino answers your questions about how we hide our true selves.</p><p>In this week’s show, you’ll learn:</p><p>*What’s happening in our minds when we’re trying to win an argument.</p><p>*Techniques for how to take another person’s perspective — and how to become more effective in persuading them of <i>your </i>perspective.</p><p>*The most successful protest tactics in winning allies.</p><p>*Why we might shift from trying to change someone’s mind to trying to change their <i>behavior.</i></p><p><i>If you love Hidden Brain, come see Shankar live in a city near you this summer!
