Columbus Rationality


Details
Join us this Monday at the next Columbus Rationality where Max Harms, Board member of Intentional Insights (https://www.facebook.com/intentionalinsights) , and Columbus Rationality's local intellectual giant, will present on ways to foresee and avoid common pitfalls in the amazingly complex set of behaviors that we call communication. As anyone familiar with communication already surely knows, it can be quite difficult to know how to steer communication back to where we want it to be once it starts to go off track. If you've ever wanted to level up your skill at communication, you won't want to miss this.
Rationality is about the science of reasoning, and acting effectively to meet your goals.
We generally begin with introductions and socializing at 7:30 and the program starts at 7:45.
Parental Warning: We are a very casual group. There is some swearing and discussion of mature issues.
