179 – There is no average

A new episode of?Anecdotally Speaking?is available! To listen to?179 – There is no average,?click here.

This week, Mark has another aircraft story for us. But don’t hesitate over the play button. Indranil Chakraborty (IC), our Anecdote Partner based in India, recently shared this story on his website, and it was simply too good not to retell here!

IC found this story in Todd Rose’s book,?The End of Average: How We Succeed in a World That Values Sameness. So if you’d like to learn more, we recommend you pick it up!

The story makes several meaningful business points, including:

• If you design for the average, you might find you’re designing for no one;?
• There is no average; and
• Challenge your assumptions.

And like last week, if you’d prefer to?watch this episode as a video, you can find one?here.
