Making sense to survive and thrive in a complex and turbulent world.
Salience is the state, quality or signal that stands out. It’s the difference that makes the difference. Each fortnight in the salience podcast we uncover patterns of sensemaking, thinking and acting from the frontiers of human performance, science and art to provide new and improved ways of acting in complex and uncertain times.
