Why solving global dysfunction requires embracing higher levels of risk
In short: Journalist Jonathan Tepperman argues that the persistent nature of global problems like inequality and terrorism shouldn't lead to stagnation. Instead, he suggests that tackling these issues requires a shift toward riskier, more ambitious problem-solving strategies.
Tepperman traveled globally to interview leaders on how they confront entrenched political dysfunction. From these conversations, he identified three specific tools for problem-solving that move beyond conventional, safe approaches.
The core insight is that while global issues are notoriously difficult, the solution may lie in a willingness to take calculated risks rather than settling for incremental progress. The video distills these hopeful stories into a framework for navigating complex international challenges.
