In short: We often default to social circles filled with people who think just like we do. Organizational psychologist Tanya Menon explores how breaking these habits can expand your social universe and unlock unexpected doors.
The video examines the psychological habits that confine us to narrow, homogenous social groups. By becoming more intentional about diversifying our connections, we can access a broader range of ideas and professional opportunities.
Menon argues that moving beyond conventional social circles is a deliberate practice. The goal is to transcend familiar patterns to discover new perspectives that are often inaccessible within our existing networks.
