The ongoing challenges in the Middle East are a great example of what happens when leaders act without fully understanding the complexities of their situations. I would argue that the turmoil in this region is not merely the result of current events but the outcome of uninformed decisions made decades ago by leaders who failed to consider the long-term consequences of their actions. Let's talk about it. --- Support this podcast:...

If one were to explore outstanding examples of organizational development, team-building, or leadership, Rome probably would not come to mind. Perhaps it should. Indeed, there are plenty of things that the Romans did right. Roman tactics regarding organizational development, team building, and leadership are three great examples of things they did exceptionally well. Today, I will share how you can use these tactics to your advantage. --- Support this podcast:...

Civil War has been in the news quite a bit lately – both domestically and abroad. Prominent names and media outlets repeatedly discuss the possibility. The overall rationale and outcome are essentially the same: the United States is deeply divided, and it might be time to fight it out. Is that true? Let's explore it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/david-m-robertson/support

Weather modification has become a hot topic in recent weeks (and years), sparking debates and raising many questions. Yet, despite the wealth of information available, much confusion persists - likely due to those appealing to their 'Confirmation Bias' instead of seeking accuracy. Even worse, many fall into the trap of the 'either/or' fallacy, which limits a deeper understanding of the issue. So, is it conspiracy or fact? The truth, as always, is far more nuanced. The answer might very well...

If you have a social media account, there is little doubt that you've seen numerous posts talking about the power of empathy, feelings, looking out for the emotional state of your peers, and so on. On the surface, it sounds nice. However, what if I were to tell you that, for those looking to lead (either their life or organization) it's terrible advice - if outcomes and goal achievement are what you want? What if I told you that it could fast-track your decline? --- Support this podcast:...

Yes, 'freedom' is important. But what if I told you that you may not have as much of it as you might otherwise think? In today's episode, we explore the concept of American freedom by examining constitutional principles established by Chief Justice John Marshall and the Founding Fathers.

The rise in popularity of alternative medicine is often met with disdain by many physicians. However, I would argue that the blame for this shift lies squarely at the feet of the medical community. Today, I'll share an article that I wrote outlining why, but also what can be done about it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/david-m-robertson/support

Today, I want to share some audio of a video I did talking about how we can evaluate the effectiveness of American leaders and their adherence to constitutional principles. The video posed critical questions about how citizens can measure leadership success, the vision our leaders pursue, and the degree to which constitutional rights are protected. At the same time, it challenges us to reconsider our perceptions of government performance and emphasizes the importance of understanding and...

Today, by request, I'll share the article "The Puppet Masters of Collusion of Power." This one presents several important questions about the world we live in but also challenges us to look at the bigger picture about those involved (or complicit) in our economic woes - including (for some of us) ourselves. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/david-m-robertson/support

In today's episode, I share audio from one of my videos. This one explores the concept of 'pseudo-thought leadership' and warns of the prevalence of recycled ideas and the lack of true originality on the web. It also discusses the psychological and social barriers to accepting novel ideas and the resistance genuine thought leaders often face. Why It Matters: Understanding the difference between real and pseudo-thought leadership is crucial - if you really value critical free-thinking....

Okay, I think I figured out what the transition will be - or needs to be. So, in this episode, I discuss the next evolution of "Destroying the Narrative" and why the show is shifting to a new format. I'll talk a little about the transition to audio articles and video content, (hopefully) making it easier for listeners to engage with the articles and videos that you may have missed. Tune in to learn what this change will mean and where I hope we'll go from here. --- Support this podcast:...
