Understanding Confidence | Signals by AlphaSense Podcast

In the latest episode of Signals, host Nick Mazing sits down with Peter Atwater, Adjust Professor of Economics at William and Mary, and the author of "The Confidence Map." Peter dives deep into the essence of confidence, distinguishing its two core elements: predictability and preparedness. He emphasizes that while many perceive these elements as intertwined, they stand separate, and are foundational to understanding confidence. The conversation takes a turn towards the main theme of the book, the four quadrants, which maps situations based on levels of certainty and control. The two key quadrants discussed are the Stress Zone quadrant, characterized by low certainty and control, and the Launchpad quadrant, marked by high control amidst uncertainty. These quadrants shed light on human behaviors, from feelings of powerlessness in the Stress Quadrant to the entrepreneurial spirit in the Launchpad. Atwater concludes by highlighting the power of narratives. He asserts that our perception of the future, especially when navigating uncertainty, is a direct reflection of our present confidence levels. --- AlphaSense is a market intelligence and search platform used by the world’s leading companies and financial institutions. → Learn more about AlphaSense: https://www.alpha-sense.com → Engage with AlphaSense: Twitter:   / alphasenseinc   LinkedIn:   / alphasense   Facebook:   / alphasenseinc   Instagram:   / alphasenseinc   Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Fpmsp1...
