Journey Into Excellence (Episode 4)
“Journey Into Excellence” is a monthly radio podcast series with a panel of experts in leadership, management, sales, psychology, personal effectiveness, and life satisfaction. The focus of the series is an evidence-based exploration into how the optimal pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness requires both clear thinking and civility within our family, education, and leadership/management systems. In this, our fourth episode, we will continue our discussion of how some common thinking errors (or, “logical fallacies”) often interfere with optimal functioning in our personal and professional lives. Our experts will cover the following fallacies this month: (1) appeal to authority, (2) appeal to the bandwagon, and (3) Texas sharpshooting. Throughout the show, our panelists will provide listeners with specific methods of minimizing the negative impact of these barriers to happy and healthy families, satisfying and useful educational experiences, and profitable and helpful organizations.
