Published: Nov. 16, 2020, 12:31 a.m.


Episode 7 This episode examines "The Greek term translated here as belief, 'doxa,' [which] can also be translated as opinion. The root of 'doxa' is dokein, seeming. In a belief, something seems so-and-so to someone. But there is also an element of judgment or acceptance" (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/skepticism-ancient/). Are our opinions of any value? What about when we throw our opinions around haphazardly, e.g.., on social media? Can we learn anything from someone else if we dogmatically believe our opinions are facts or truths? These are questions for Leadosophy to examine in this episode. Season One: Foundations of Leadosophy Leadosophy is the fusion of leadership and philosophy. We use philosophical thought to deepen our understanding of leadership, together.
