Subtract w/ Gabe Adams & Leidy Klotz

from The Behavioral Design Podcast · host Samuel Salzer and Aline Holzwarth

In this episode, we speak with the fantastic research duo Gabrielle Adams and Leidy Klotz about their work on the science of less: subtraction. Their research on the science of problem-solving has identified this fascinating bias against subtraction. In other words, when we solve problems, we tend to favor adding things over subtracting things, even when subtraction offers a better solution. We have a massive subtraction blindspot. We had a great discussion, exploring all aspects of subtraction, from their research to tips for how teams and individuals can overcome it and why "jeggings" are severely underrated. Enjoy!

Thanks! The song used is Murgatroyd by David Pizzaro.
