In this episode of the Contextual Intelligence Podcast Dr. Kutz outlines 12 distinct action steps that listeners can implement to enhance their contextual intelligence and deal with complexity, uncertainty, and ambiguity. Kutz further breaks down each action step, discussing ideas such as leveraging one's senses, anticipating outliers, and practicing retroflexion. He emphasizes the journey, the need to understand instincts and reflexes along with errors in our assumptions, plus learning from and applying lessons from different contexts. He concludes by inviting listeners to explore how he can help their teams and organizations further.

In the 14th episode of the Contextual Intelligence Podcast, Dr. Matt discusses overcoming obstacles to contextual intelligence, focusing on the pace of change, complexity, and learned behaviors. Matt explores the idea of thinking in 3D (hindsight, foresight, and insight), explaining how this can aid in navigating uncertainty and complexity. He further discusses the importance of distinguishing between complex and complicated situations, highlighting how people often misunderstand the true level of complexity. Finally, he delves into the role of personal experience as both a hindrance to and enabler of contextual intelligence, emphasizing the significance of self-awareness in this process.

In Episode 13 of the Contextual Intelligence Podcast, host and author Dr. Matt Kutz explores Chapter 12 of his book 'Contextual Intelligence, How 3D Thinking Can Help Resolve Complexity, Uncertainty, and Ambiguity'. The discussion centers on the disruptors of 3D thinking such as hindsight bias and conjunction bias. Kutz stresses the importance of overcoming these biases to improve decision-making and emphasizes the importance of other people's perspectives in recollecting past experiences. He also introduces the agreement trust matrix, which helps to identify the right people to involve in decision-making processes.
