Dr Nippin Anand from Novellus Solutions will be holding an online session on Jan 30 10am UK time focusing on cultural intelligence.
Modern science is busy bursting myths but is that the right approach?
Myths are not false stories. Myths are contextually true, coherent from within and honest to their culture. Myths provide the basis for how we understand the world and give meaning to our narratives.
Join this one-hour session which will discuss:
- What is a myth and how do myths influence our decisions?
- Why myth bursting is not the best way to think about myths.
- How myths relate with symbols and rituals to give meaning to our narratives.
