92. Taking the Long View, with Pete Kale

On this episode of the podcast, we look at what "taking the long view" can teach us about the innovator's mindset and imagining the future. Among the topics we discuss are why being able to think deeply into the future helps us make it reality, why we're all designers in some form or fashion whether we know it or not, and what the "Halloween asteroid" can teach us about probability, chance, and playing the Powerball.

Over the course of his career, Pete has worked with a number of leaders in the field of design thinking.
