Day 1 of the #EMBA at #HWZ Zurich was π₯! We had the privilege of learning from Andreas Krafft, diving into the fascinating world of Swiss #FutureStudies ππ¨π. We explored different future scenarios, reflecting on how our mindset shapes the way we face uncertainties.
One of the highlights was our discussion on cognitive biases like #OptimismBias and #StatusQuoBias, which subtly influence our decisions. Itβs easy to cling to the status quo or underestimate risks, but real change comes with bold thinking and embracing uncertainty π‘.
We also touched on #NewWork β something Iβm passionate about at ZVV π with Hildegard Fischer. Itβs clear that future thinking and new work models go hand in hand. Innovation isnβt just about ideas, itβs about putting them into action π οΈ.
But what really stuck with me was the deep dive into #Fear and #Hope. Krafft showed how these emotions can either drive us forward or hold us back. Fear keeps us stuck, but hope empowers us to act π.
Todayβs key takeaway? Itβs not just about being optimistic β itβs about being hopeful. Hope isnβt blind optimism; itβs the belief that with the right steps, we can steer the future in a positive direction.
From now on, Iβm not just an optimist β Iβm a hopeful optimist β¨π.
