Reading the book Think Again by Adam Grant, and itencourages us to think like a scientist when it comes to our beliefs/views. While our values/principles can be consistent, we should allow ourselves to rethink our methods and beliefs on other things. This often requires us to take in alternative views and get outside of the echo chambers that have become so common. As we work to invigorate male community leadership, we should aim to do what we can to reduce the polarization that has gripped our society. An open mind is a good start.
