Claus Raasted | Getting stuff done | Episode #54

from The Only Constant · host Lasse Rindom

In this episode, Lasse Rindom speaks with Claus Raasted - author, experience designer, and perhaps the only person who's ever been both a legendary live roleplayer and a McKinsey coach. Their conversation explores what it really means to “get shit done” and how companies can embrace experimentation without losing their structure. Along the way, they cover: Why action, experimentation, and curiosity are the foundation for making things happen How innovation always creates tension between the dreamers and the doers - and why that’s not a bad thing How to work with legacy instead of just trying to blow it all up The art of roleplaying - not just for fun, but as a way to step into other people’s realities Six enlightening “biases” for getting things done in organizations Do you want to know more about Claus Raasted? Claus Raasted helps organizations both big and small become better at GETTING S**T DONE, and serves as Director of the College of Extraordinary Experiences. He travels the globe as a keynote speaker, and has been both a Coach and Senior Advisor at the consulting giant McKinsey. Raasted is the author of 46 books, the latest of which is fittingly titled “Claus Raasted’s Little Book of Getting Shit Done”. He also has a past in reality TV, but these days, who hasn't?
