A topic that I’ve been working on recently is applying a lot of the rationality, effectiveness lessons from LW, Thinking Fast and Slow, Getting Things Done, etc. into a model of leadership. Preferably a model I could devise ways to test, and tweak.
I think that having accurate beliefs about the world is great, but effectiveness in modifying the world is better, and a big part of of the world we’re interested in modifying is made up of other people. How do I apply all of this rationality stuff to actually accomplishing things, especially when accomplishing things means working with others?
I’m sure other people are equally or more qualified than I am to discuss this topic, but I haven’t really seen it discussed and it seems like something that would be valuable to the community.
