\"We don't live in a stable world anymore. We live in a rapidly changing, turbulent world. And in a dynamic environment, intelligence is not just your ability to think and learn, it's your capacity to rethink and unlearn.\"
Adam Grant, organizational psychologist, podcaster, and author of the bestseller \"Think Again\", tells us why we are wrong in many of our assumptions about today's world, and why we would all benefit from tackling our own biases - not least the \"I'm-not-biased\" bias.
And he explains why the wrong sorts of people too often get promoted or elected to positions of power.
Adam spoke to Radio Davos at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos, Switzerland.
