Goodthink: The New Science of Collective Intelligence

Damon Centola, Professor, University of Pennsylvania

  • Unlearn the myth of groupthink and see why social influence is not the cause of conformity, polarization, and poor decision-making.

  • Discover the new science of "goodthink," and see how to make groups increasingly intelligent and innovative, achieving outcomes that exceed the capabilities of even their most talented members.

  • Learn practical principles for designing smarter organizations, better online platforms, and more effective and creative communication networks.

Here is a preview of some of the concurrent sessions that will be taking place on Thursday, October 1 and Friday, October 2.
