  • Crazy Smart Indeed

    Most podcasts I’ve listened to are old thoughts branded as “new”. Crazy Smart Asia breaks the mold by giving me a perspective so different from my own that I am forced into a healthy discomfort as to my existing way of thinking. I can see how the content will cultivate fertile ground for fresh discussions and open new streams of thought especially for myself as an educator trying to adjust to the realities of a VUCA world.
