Episode Description

Step into the whirlwind of change with this episode of Geeks Geezers Googlization: "Adaptive Perception Disorder." Guest co-hosts Eli and Casey take a Deep Dive into the eerily familiar yet subtly dangerous mindset threatening the backbone of businesses today. They delve deep into the intriguing concept of Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD), coined by GGG host and Future of Work Global Thought Leader Ira Wolfe himself. Why is exploring APD important? ADP is endemic in many companies, a mindset that causes them to believe they're on top of change when they're actually way behind. It's calling the hurricane a light breeze. 

Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD) might not be the buzzword yet, but it certainly highlights a crippling blind spot in many organizations. Here are top three takeaways:

  • Spot the Symptoms: Organizations often suffer from outdated strategy decks and vague positivity about being "on track." It's crucial to recognize these signs as they could indicate a dangerous disconnect from reality.

  • Understanding APD Subtypes: APD manifests in various forms like Perceptual Change Deficiency and Strategic Narcissism. Identifying these can help in addressing areas where adaptation might be lagging.

  • Build Adaptability Intelligence (AQ): It's about fostering a culture of constant learning, questioning existing knowledge, and embracing discomfort to truly evolve and stay ahead.
