622: Moritz Bierling On Achieving Full Agency Inside All Arenas
Moritz Bierling returns for another marathon conversation about how individuals can be navigators of increasingly complex and dysfunctional communications arenas.
The primary focus is what Moritz refers to as the Agent/Arena Relationship. Arenas - be they social, political, cultural, or economic - are breaking down all around us, and many people struggle to figure out how to adapt and thrive (or maybe just survive) in this flux. We talk about how to achieve stability through adaptability in these situations.
One of the keys is the building of "internal coherence" or self-integration. Dis-integrated selves cannot be the building blocks of harmonious or even sustainable groups or institutions. Such harmony requires individual agents with the ability to read and understand the dynamics of the larger arena.
Moritz also discusses his related professional mission: converting people to their own cause. It connects to an idea we've been talking about on SSP since 2010: identifying and expanding one's sphere of control, and not operating outside of that sphere.
