This episode unpacks the value of stories to understand the past and inform current policy debates. Leading experts discuss the origin of stories, the status of storytellers, and the crucial need to listen to stories to improve policymaking. 

This episode is hosted by Rory Cellan-Jones (former technology correspondent for the BBC), and features guest experts Sarah Dillon (Bennett Institute for Public Policy) and Manvir Singh (Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse).

Why are stories important for society?

We turn the spotlight on forecasting itself, and look back on the predictions we made for 2022. How accurate were we? How do “<a href="https://www.economist.com/the-world-ahead/2022/11/18/what-the-superforecasters-predict-for-major-events-in-2023?utm_campaign=a.io&amp;utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&amp;utm_source=theworldahead&amp;utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&amp;utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">superforecasters</a>” look into the future? And how can forecasters account for irrational world leaders when predicting major events? Charlotte Howard, The Economist’s executive editor, talks to Tom Standage, editor of <a href="https://www.economist.com/the-world-ahead-2023?utm_campaign=a.io&amp;utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&amp;utm_source=theworldahead&amp;utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&amp;utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The World Ahead</a>, and Warren Hatch, the CEO of Good Judgement, a “superforecasting” platform and partner of The Economist.

Elise Densborn (Splendid Spoon) - From Customer to Co-CEO

In this new Addy Hour conversation, we start with a two-part episode on thriving without burnout – especially in vocations that involve investing in each other as team members, mentors, educators, leaders and more. In part one, we’re joined by Dr. Christine Pfund, a leader and national director at the forefront of teaching, learning and mentor and mentee training who has written on mentor burnout. Join us for a rich, honest and pragmatic conversation.  

Dr. Pfund helps us identify the signs and different types of burn out, and then provides practical tips for replenishing and recharging. In this candid conversation, Dr. Pfund and Dr. Addy also share personal insights from their own mentoring approaches, successes, tensions, growth areas, and navigation with burnout. We also consider the circumstances and internal and external pressures that can move us towards burnout, such as our internal expectations and guilt. To push against this tendency for burnout, we reflect on the powerful role of community, the importance of checking in and support of one another, and the essential practice of setting boundaries. We end by discussing the role of faith perspectives, and the benefits and challenges of servant-hearted leadership and discerning when to say no. This is a great episode that will help you reflect and identify early signs of burnout and give you practical tools that you can apply today. It’s a truly wide-ranging, informative and encouraging conversation!
