Philosopher and author Roman Krznaric explains how we can help drive social change by stepping outside of ourselves. As he says, “Introspection is out, and outrospection is in.”

One may not agree with every example he cites (I’m thinking, specifically of the example about “Climate Change”) – but there can be no doubt that this talk, accompanied by the RSA’s inimitably-amusing, on-the-fly cartoons will make you a better person, in just 10 minutes!
