Can you be successful and fair? David Bodanis - a podcast by Emma Gunavardhana

David Bodanis is an author who joins me on the podcast to discuss the notion of fairness and why being fair is an art. It's a subject that David has explored at length in his book The Art of Fairness and in this conversation we discuss:

• Why nice guys finish last.
• Why it's unfortunate that being a 'slimy jerk' can actually get you far in life.
• What you get in return when you encourage and enable the people around you.
• Why power is so seductive but can easily slip into arrogance.
• The importance of listening without ego.
• Why generosity shouldn't be confused with niceness.
• The lessons we learned from Faust and Wall Street.
• Why, if we assume the world is fair, we'll be disappointed.
• Why being fair to yourself first is the way to spread fairness and much more...
