Description
Have you noticed your appetite for big ideas shrink in recent years? We like our solutions served in to-go cups: 15 second TikToks, 280 character tweets, 18 minute TED Talks. But when you bake down an idea to become bite-sized, you’re left with easy-to-swallow strategies, not for solving problems, but living with them. Join me, your host, Rachael Kay Albers, marketing muckraking director and brand strategist gone wild, as I explore what the Ideas Economy is doing to our capacity for problem solving. This episode is a love letter to Anand Giridharadas's book Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World and what it reveals about who and what we lose in a capitalist economy that demands we only pursue win-win solutions.
