Summary

Most certainty starts life as an assumption. An assumption is made. The assumption works.The assumption survives. Eventually the assumption becomes knowledge. Or something very similar. ------ In this episode, we explore why organisations often inherit confidence more easily than evidence. Why conclusions travel further than context.And why some of the most influential beliefs inside a system are not actively defended. They are simply no longer inspected. A conversation about assumptions, familiarity, organisational memory and the quiet ways certainty is manufactured. ------ Stay Tuned… Regards, Top Voice Maido & Kon'nichiwa min'na! 👶🏻🧑🏻‍🦱👩🏻‍🦳 Wie Geht's guys?
