29 分钟Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab, hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, she's tackling topics that affect her own life, like stress, perfectionism, and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.
The deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Aubrey, and other Black Americans has put the issue of confronting systemic anti black racism front and center.
On today's episode, we will discuss the role communication can play in helping advance social justice.
I'm Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
Welcome to think fast, talk smart, the podcast.
I am excited to be joined by Brian Lowry, professor of organizational behavior and a senior associate dean at the GSB.
And I should note my boss Brian's research explores individuals experience of inequality and fairness.
He also leads the GSB's interpersonal dynamics team.
This quarter, Brian is hosting a series of conversations with prominent leaders from all sectors to examine the way race interacts with structures of power and how systematic racism manifests itself in our daily lives.
These conversations will take place in a class, are open to the public as a webinar series, and are being released as a podcast series called leadership for society, race, and power.
The podcast is available now.
Welcome, Brian.
Great to be here, Matt.
Thanks for having me.
Congratulations on your podcast and more importantly, thank you for the work you are doing.
