When I heard Ian Bremmer mentioned about Nelson Mandela, that had brought me back in time to March 1997 when Nelson Mandela was visiting Singapore I was walking towards the building ready to start my work and from a distance I could see our Late Former Prime Minister Mr Goh Chok Tong was showing Nelson Mandela around the building That moment was a golden opportunity and an unforgettable experience for me I would never have expected that opportunity shown up in my reality Comment from : From Housewife To Pilot |

Best explanation so far Comment from : DARSHAN PATIL |

Strategic thinking is about examining the forces that drive your thought process with the main goal being to identify and update any antiquated ideas, thus resulting in a more reliable framework for making decisions This reminds me of Descartes' obsession that led him to scrutinize all his beliefs in the pursuit of truth The description of this process as being meta thinking was quite apt Comment from : Tony Ban |

Pure genius!! Great ingsights🙌🏻 Comment from : Tom Finn |
|
A bit baffledbrbrNelson Mandela's taking the long view does not exemplify strategic thinking Plenty of people are capable of strategic thinking What is tough is sacrificing short-term gains (re-election, money, pride, etc) for these long-term outcomes This idea goes beyond strategic thinking to the next step of strategic *acting* The steps for strategic acting are not described in this video, which is why I am baffled Comment from : dansut324 |

I am running away from persecution and massacres I knocked on the door of a beautiful farm, and its people warmly welcomed me with their generosity After some time my English friend gave me a fancy rifle So I decided to kill the peaceful owners of the farm who had welcomed me And with the help of my American friend, I declared it my private property I'm the hero of my own story Comment from : Idris Willie |

Strategic thinking as described is political within the paradigm of nation-states, for example Intelligence is the ability to adapt resourcefully and creatively if necessary as reasonable and wise, all things considered Spiritual living accords with natural and moral principle as freely and genuinely understood Inner peace is a wellspring of openness and clarity, an excellent foundation for honest self-reflection and interconnection :) Comment from : A von Sternen |

I could be wrong So, I seek out the antithesis I ask myself what evidence would falsify my thesis?brbrThere are 3 approaches to influence Coercion, mimicking and internalization People resist coercion, and being a war criminal is not all that appealing So, what could Putin do make me internalize him as my dictator? brbrSeriously, if he could create a global thermal control system to insure habitable thermal equilibrium on earth for the next millennia, I'd think I'd agree But he'd need to abandon this idea that Ukraine is part of RussiabrbrWhy not - let's ask him Comment from : Aaron Davis |

Ian Bremmer discusses the concept of strategic thinking and emphasizes the importance of constantly revisiting and updating one's worldview to stay relevant in a rapidly changing world He suggests that great strategic thinkers are curious and open to different worldviews, rather than simply confirming their existing beliefs Bremmer also cites Nelson Mandela as an example of a global strategic thinker due to his ability to prioritize long-term values and human development over personal vendettas The video ends with a promotion for BigThink+ for businesses to learn from the world's biggest thinkers Comment from : Sendy Ardi |

The key to strategic thinking is understanding the goal we want to accomplish or the problem we want to solve It may sound easy, but it's not
brRather than writing my goal as it is, it's crucial to understand “Why” I want to achieve my goal

Interesting way to present this topic, Ian However, let's PLEASE not conflate curiosity and openness with the notion that 'everyone just has their own truth and worldview' and therefore "we're just different" No! A well-trained strategic thinker isn't simply curious and open but also has the capacity to discern between alternative paths and anticipate which path might lead to better outcomes Comment from : Christian Filli |

Meta-thinking is thinking about thinking, yes It is not, in my view, thinking about where the world is headed--as valuable as that might be Meta-thinking is the subject of cognitive linguistics One of my favorite ideas in meta-thinking I call Lee's Elucidation which is, A finite number of words must represent an infinite number of things and possibilities What are the repercussions of that? That's meta-thinking Comment from : Arthur Wieczorek |

funny seeing a 21 century buisness preacher that soley studied political sciences just sh***ng on a daunting history of complex philosophical thoughts on the matter to come up with this mindless reduction and than having the audacity to advise you to "question your worldview and engage with different ones", to "think about your thinking" This is true of course But what he doesn't see is how this practice of reflection and engagement in thought on its own leads somewhere he has never been He took two steps in the direction of Philosophy and now believes he has something to tell you, when in reality he has only grasped a straw of the neverending meddows of philosophy (or in this case largely hermeneutics) He speaks of things he understands less than other people- and that makes him a weak thinker, a hoax An inflatement An insult to actual thinkersbrDo yourself a favor, read Hegel, read Heidegger, hell- maybe even talk to your priest I dont care- Juet don't let yourself be dictated by this illusion of a philosopher Comment from : Ominöse Omimöse |

I respected this guy once he said it’s better that he didn’t meet his idol because in his experience, spending more time with world leaders, humanizes them…aka he finds out they also, at some point, spent a weekend on Jeffrey Epstein’s island of sin lol Comment from : Adam Martin |

4:40 All fine, but this doesn't take into account that some people are, in fact, villainousbr5:40 Mandela, for all the good he did, is not perfect He had people killed with burning car tires around their necks Comment from : Eddy S |

To be so afraid of being "wrong" that you relentlessly update your world view just to be agreeable to others' that's not strategic thinking, that's EXHAUSTING Real strategic thinking is deciding you don't care about politics and avoiding it at all costs :P Comment from : xskinyx |

Please ignore my rather infantile username, but can you talk about the topic of diplomacy and the foreign service? That would be much appreciated! Comment from : ANTI-FEMINAZI |

Nelly Mandela was the one!!! Comment from : The Class of Opera |
|
This is a great way of thinking But it’s also anti-natural Possible for individuals, but not really possible as we crowd Comment from : JFi |
|
Lol this is hilarious He’s basically asking you to embrace strategy that is divergent to your thinking and conviction It’s a recipe for disaster and a deviation from core thinking Instead he should be encouraging viewers to groom and refine strategic thinking to develop conviction through inclusion You can’t embrace chaos and lose your identity entirely without have a core strategy or values The art is being aware and knowing where to fit in other world views and priorities to enable equitable growth for all views/ stakeholders He misses that point entirely when he says surround yourself with people who think differently to you, and improve strategic thinking through practice ? Lol he’s a recipe for hostility Comment from : Siddharth Sriram |
|
This video said nothing; it was entirely jargon and vague ideas Comment from : Daniel Viles |
|
Strategic thinking is intrinsic to holistic management Holistic decision making is a means of crowd sourcing and integrating diverse perspectives It requires that we have no ideological biases in the toolkit to allow us to choose what is most context appropriate Lastly, it acknowledges complexity's implication of management context as a moving target and part of planning requires implementing and maintaining feedback loops through monitoring context assuming that we are drifting off course (rather than presuming we are on course until evidence becomes unavoidably obvious) to avoid confirmation bias and allow for early, proactive and subtle course correction Comment from : ayoungethan |

There are those expressing opposing views who ARE villainous How can strategic thinking 🤔 overcome malicious liars? 🥸? Comment from : Robert W Frazer |

Takeaway; implement 're-visiting' worldview in journal – in some way, be flexible with your goals as the world changersbrbrAnd add Nelson Mandela to the people to study a bit more Comment from : Amy |
|
He mentioned Nelson Mandela, and it makes me sad that people have forgotten Steve Biko He advocated for Black Consciousness, aware his own people had allowed a divide in their thinking, that they had internalised the prejudices of the nationalists that promoted and enforced apartheid Somewhat similar to feminists raising awareness of internalised misogyny in women that holds them back Comment from : Sorcha ni Daan |
|
So the issue with me is communicating these thingssometimes I analyse things based on patterns for eg what I see a country doing It can come off as racist or stereotyping in everyday conversation Most people don't think like this :/ Comment from : Danielle Downer |
|
Mandela was not long term strategist! Have you seen what's happening in South Africa? More successful long term strategist is Lee Kuan Yew Comment from : King Kong |
|
Ian Bremmer's line that there are 3 or 4 "dictators" surrounded by Yes-men isolated from discussions of the world going off in their own direction is a Western narrative Whenever a power in the global south tries something eg China's High Speed Rail, or BRI the West collectively always make negative comment, predicts failure, and discourage innovation other than from itself The only thing South actor do they like is for them to copy them, and even that they complain brChina by charting its own course, by discounting the West's knee jerk negativity as achieved many unexpected successes Examples are HSR, BRI, green tech, space exploration, AI So I really do not see them (China, Russia) as dictators isolated by yes-men, going from blunder to blunder Comment from : Joe |
