Gonna have to face it: we’re addicted to change. I’m not a scientist or a psychologist. I define addiction my own way. You’re addicted to something when it’s not good for you, but you do it anyway.

As a leadership coach, I have found that leaders are usually measured more by who they are than what they do. Skills and reputation is incredibly important in leadership. And, as Warren Buffet once said, it takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. No matter what great things you do, your leadership will be impaired if you’re not the person you should be and you are not doing what you should be doing.

The last few years have seen the predictive capabilities of experts dismissed by populist politicians. Their rhetoric usually revolves around the inherent uncertainty in making any kind of prediction, but especially when those predictions are either involving long timeframes or highly complex systems. Initiatives like the Good Judgement Project have attempted to better understand what makes someone a ‘superforecaster’, and the evidence to date suggests an acceptance of the uncertai
