292: The Most Dangerous Blind Spot

What if the biggest risk to your thinking isn't what you don't know but what you're certain you already know? Recently, I watched two experienced CEOs discover important perspectives that neither their own thinking nor their use of AI had surfaced. It reminded me that the most dangerous blind spots don't feel like blindness. They feel like certainty. In this episode, I explore how experience and expertise can sharpen our judgement while quietly narrowing our field of vision. And as AI gives us access to more answers than ever, our ability to challenge the frame we're thinking inside may become increasingly important. Because sometimes you don't need a better answer. What you really need is another perspective.
