350: Dan Heath | Solving Problems from Upstream

The Jordan Harbinger Show

Dan Heath is a Senior Fellow at Duke University's CASE center, which supports entrepreneurs who are fighting for social good. He is the co-author of four New York Times bestsellers, and his latest book is Upstream: The Quest to Solve Problems Before They Happen.

What We Discuss with Dan Heath:

  • Why are we more often stuck in a cycle of response downstream of problems rather than upstream where we might prevent them from happening in the first place?
  • What lessons can we learn about upstream versus downstream thinking by examining our current pandemic crisis?
  • What the federal response to Hurricane Katrina tells us about an ounce of prevention being worth a pound of cure.
  • Upstream versus downstream thinking regarding the healthcare debate in the US.
  • And much more...
