Anthro-Vision
A New Way to See in Business and Life
Avid Reader Press, 2021
¿De qué se trata?
Anthropology helps limit personal and professional myopia.
Recommendation
Anthropology can help people and organizations that are burdened by the inability to perceive problems and opportunities outside an inflexible field of focus, says respected Financial Times editor, author and columnist Gillian Tett. Anthropological discipline demands listening to what people say, developing empathy, valuing diversity and identifying bias blind spots. As investors apply broader approaches to the businesses in their portfolios, Tett teaches, more companies need to replace tunnel vision with anthro-like “lateral vision,” taking in a wider scope of issues, including ESG ramifications.
