Mo Gawdat argues that success in business doesn't require the aggression we're taught. Compassion, creativity, and beauty matter more than competitiveness. Steve Jobs proved it: his empathy for users made him unstoppable.
In the age of the end of the truth, the top skill that you need is to debate everything is to ask yourself is this true? Right? And I've done that on so many topics in my life. You know, the topic of empowering my feminine for example, because you know, Harvard Business School and every company I've ever worked in told me that doing and achieving targets and being competitive and aggressive is the way to win in the business world. And I debated that. I said perhaps not perhaps being compassionate, you know, being a paradoxical thinker, being creative could actually having an appreciation for beauty like Ste. Steve Jobs. Most people will think Steve Jobs was successful because he was obnoxious and pushy and he had, you know, that knack for quality. No, Steve Jobs was successful because he had an empathy for the user's need, an appreciation of beauty and enormous creativity that actually are all feminine qualities. So you debate that concept.
