BasTalk - life at work.
Welcome world, to BasTalk - your podcast about life at work, where we talk about stuff that no one really tells you at work. That said if you are looking for some major management mumbo jumbo, this is not it. BasTalk has no life-changing advice, no get-rich-quick insights, or paradigm-shifting fluff stuff to transform your life or turn you into a superhero overnight. Instead, it is a simple, slow burn, straight talk. If you're patient enough to listen to some practical and tactical insights from my 20+ years of corporate experience, then BasTalk might be the right podcast for you. Think of it as a constant companion while you are stuck in the traffic of office life or struggling to get on that morning walk of your career, BasTalk is with you. There are various topics, from people management and leadership to career insights and navigating office culture and politics as well. The goal, idea is to make you rethink, reflect and revisit many aspects of your career and life at work and see if you could do it any differently. If not, that's okay too! BasTalk is not etched in stone, it's a work in progress and the content on topics evolve as I learn, experience, and reflect on my own journey. I welcome you all to walk the BasTalk!

Confirmation Bias

Confirmation Bias

A typical Startup Founders dilemma #23: having conviction vs being in denial!

Some founders are blessed with the gift of the gab & over time they begin to view their own BS as the real deal. This is compunded more in nascent organizations, because no one questions them. So what happens?

They succumb to confirmation bias.

A tendency to search, interpret, and out logic people in a way that confirms or supports their own preconcieved notions, make it sound real and present it as the only truth.

Gradually,they become hyper cynical,convoluted and warped in their thinking. And when results show otherwise, they find yet another counter-logic to justify the original fallacy. There's so much power in the denial cycle,it sucks in everyone around it.They risk not just their own future but also those who follow them.


Tune in to this episode of BasTalk where I share 3 ways to navigate past confirmation bias.

Alpha leaders on notice : break the loop before its too late.
