1
AI is changing how we work, think, and communicate.
2
As these tools become more capable, knowing how to use them effectively matters more than ever.
3
I'm Matt Abrahams, and I teach Strategic Communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
4
Welcome to this Rethinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, the podcast.
5
We're opening up the vault to revisit my conversation with Stanford professor Russ Altman.
6
Listen in as we explore how AI can help us communicate more clearly, sharpen our thinking, and solve problems more effectively while reminding us why human judgment,
7
curiosity, and connection remain essential.
8
Welcome, Russ.
9
I'm a big fan of your podcast
10
and really enjoyed the opportunity we had earlier today where I was a guest on your show.
11
Thanks so much.
12
Thanks for having me.
13
I share enthusiasm for this podcast and it's kind of a thrill.
14
I think it might be my first podcast as a guest and it couldn't be a better one.
15
Oh, Well, thank you.
16
And I'm excited for what we're about to do.
17
You ready to get started?
18
Yes.
19
Excellent.
20
Each of your podcast episode titles starts with the future of.
21
So let me start by asking you for your thoughts on the future of communication, especially how AI plays out in it.
22
So first of all, I'm glad you mentioned that I had you on my podcast this morning, because the answer is you just told me the future of communication.
23
But I actually thought about it before we chatted.
24
I'm an AI enthusiast.
25
I use AI in my research.
26
I'm part of the human -centered AI Institute at Stanford.
27
AI in general has exposed lots of things that were hidden in our society.
28
So a lot of people hear about bias and unfairness, and that is a problem with AI.
29
On the other hand, it was a problem before, and in some ways we need to give AI credit for exposing the unfairness
30
and giving us something that we can work on to try to improve.
31
And the reason I mentioned this is I I think for communication, in some ways, it's the same answer.
32
If you're worried that a chat GPT type tool can replace you, I think you need to think about why am I communicating?
33
What am I trying to say?
34
Am I being authentic?
35
Do I have a message?
36
Because really, if those things are true, it shouldn't be a problem.
37
It should actually just help you amplify and improve your message.
38
So I think
39
that we're at a time now where people have to ask hard questions about why they're communicating
40
and how they communicate and I think
41
that the AI is bringing these issues to the fore that were kind of insidiously in the background.
42
So you can see I'm an AI optimist and I think this will help.
43
I also think AI can bring a lot of value to communication and I really like your response that, you know, the thing to worry about is not AI taking over communication.
44
The thing to worry about is do I have a clear goal?
45
Do I know what is important to say and how can I craft it in a way to be helpful?
46
And I think AI can be an assistant in it.
47
For example, I have many non -native speaking students.
48
AI is a wonderful tool to help them learn some of the vernacular and learn other options for ways of saying things.
49
So I appreciate that perspective.
50
You know, it is interesting how good it is when you say, please explain this at the level of an eighth grader or at the level of a high school student.
51
And I think that's something we all can get better at because listening, understanding who your audience is and then making sure you're delivering at the right level is always a challenge.
52
And that seems to be one thing that it's kind of good at.
53
Absolutely.
54
And you can actually use it to flag jargon in terms that others might not understand.
55
You mentioned that you happen to use it in your communication.
56
Do you mind sharing some of the ways you use it?
57
My favorite story, if I may, was I had written a grant proposal.
58
And I ran the one -page summary of the grant through the large language model.
59
And I said, please summarize the strengths
60
and weaknesses of this summary of my research that I'm about to submit to the National Institutes of Health for research dollars.
61
and it came back and it had a few, you know, pretty good positives and negatives.
62
But my favorite negative is it said, you seem to be leaning on prior accomplishments too heavily.
63
And it was absolutely right.
64
So I've used it as like as a pre -human screen.
65
Before I go to my colleagues even, even my trusted colleagues, let's just see what the LLM has to say.
66
Maybe I'll fix it up and then give it to my buddy down the hall to take a look.
67
That's fantastic that it was helpful to you and I like this idea of it's actually a pre -editor.
68
Yes.
69
Did it recommend you need to see some therapy about some narcissism?
70
No, no, no. It didn't.
71
That goes without statement.
72
But if I had asked, I'm sure it would have added to the chorus.
73
I want to pull this thread a little farther about grants.
74
You have been incredibly successful at raising money for the projects that you do through the grants that you apply for.
75
Many of our listeners have to write proposals asking for funding from their bosses or from external organizations.
76
What guidance do you have when it comes to drafting proposals and grants?
77
I am passionate about this.
78
In general, the first thing you have to do is understand the mission of the person
79
or institution to whom you are making a request.
80
Because if you don't hit that mission directly, it's end of the game.
81
Given that, you need to have a big problem that you want to be part of the solution of, and then a focused problem that you are actually going to provide the solution to.
82
You have to show that that sub problem is not solved.
83
Then you have to make the case that there's an opportunity that you and maybe others, but certainly you have.
84
And then you have to boil it down to three to
85
five action items followed by a summary of the state of the world when you're done.
86
And I believe that
87
that formula can be used from everything from a grant to a federal funding agency to a marriage proposal.
88
And I've tried it in all different settings and it really is the fundamental structure of any proposal.
89
When we turn off the microphones, I want to hear the future state that you use to propose to your wife.
90
Happiness.
91
No, it's an easy one.
92
Honey, you will be happier then than you are now.
93
Excellent.
94
So the key takeaway from what you just said, I think, is not only do you have to know your audience and what's important for them, and that's critical, regardless if it's a proposal or a pitch or a presentation.
95
But this notion of where we are to where we're going to, from to to, is so important in pitches,
96
in presentations, and it sounds like in types of proposals.
97
And I like this notion of saying, hey, there's this larger problem, and I'm going to focus on this subset, and my unique value or my team's unique value is what's going to help us solve it.
98
Here's the specific things, and then here's what the world's going to look like.
99
Thank you for listening, Matt.
100
What you did just there is something I'd also like to ask you about.
101
Your work in the academic world is incredibly complex, is incredibly detailed.
102
And yet you're so good at explaining and making that complex information accessible.
103
What are your thoughts on how to do that?
104
I know you do it strategically.
105
I know from the conversation you and I had earlier you like using the whiteboard.
106
What are the things you think about
107
when you take complex information to make it more accessible to people who just don't know as much without dumbing it down?
108
You know this very well, that stories are what people remember, stories are what people like.
109
It's actually frustrating because part of my work is statistics.
110
And statistics is really much more robust than a story.
111
We always say you might have one good anecdote and that doesn't replace lots of actual data.
112
But I'm afraid that sometimes, a lot of times, a good story does stand in for a lot of data
113
because it's so compelling to the human mind.
114
So we're always looking for stories.
115
analogy is a key part of both stopping the conversation and letting people catch up, but also saying, okay, wait a minute.
116
Let me rephrase what you just said, but let me not use the words you just said.
117
Let me map it onto an everyday situation like going shopping.
118
So you're telling me that the internet
119
and the way it works is like a very complicated email mail system or Or whatever.
120
And so can you listen to what the expert is saying and see an analogy to an everyday life thing?
121
And you're checking your understanding, but on the chance that you're right, you're also helping the entire listenership or readership understand what was just said.
122
So that's important.
123
Related to that, and you already said it earlier, you always have an antenna up for jargon.
124
And I'm sure you do this too.
125
You have to be willing to stop the conversation cold and say, oh, you just said NIH.
126
That's the National Institutes of Health.
127
They fund research in America.
128
And so part of what I'm doing always is a little antenna listening for words
129
that need to be defined or abbreviations that might not be commonly understood.
130
So I think analogy, stories, and then adjusting, adjusting the level.
131
So sometimes when you're talking with someone, you just have to send them signals in real time
132
that we are talking at a level that requires a PhD and I'm going for high school, college students here or whatever.
133
And then it's practice.
134
And one of the great things I love both about this podcast
135
and about your book is you don't say that you either got it or you don't got it.
136
All of this can be practiced and learned.
137
Absolutely.
138
That's a big point I like to try to make and encourage people and you are helping all of us learn this.
139
Something that I think can also be helpful, and I'd love to get your input on this, is there's work you can do in advance.
140
So you can actually stockpile some stories or think about some potential analogies that might work.
141
So it doesn't all have to happen in the moment.
142
You can pull them in.
143
And at the same time, some pre -work you can do is you can prepare the audience.
144
So in a meeting invite, for example, you could say, and we're gonna be talking about concepts like this.
145
So people come in primed, which I think makes your job easier.
146
What are your thoughts on that kind of pre -work?
147
I totally agree.
148
I had one more point written down, and I just had decided that I had talked too long a second ago.
149
But I said anticipate the tough spots and validate that they're tough.
150
So say to the audience, this guy is talking about quantum physics.
151
This is hard stuff.
152
Here's how we're going to try to manage through it together.
153
So I just want to say that you're absolutely right.
154
I think the key idea of prep for an interview
155
or for creating a document or any kind of communication is.. anticipating the tough moments, the tough concepts, and exactly as you say,
156
saying, okay, I'm gonna try to fly with this analogy.
157
I think this'll work.
158
I think it'll make it more accessible, more relatable.
159
And that's part of doing your homework.
160
And it's not that hard to just think.
161
I spend, before I talk to you, before I talk to anybody, I spend the night before basically Google stalking you, looking at what have you said, what have you done.
162
Part of it is so I can have emergency topics to talk about if it turns out that you're, you know, reticent to speak.
163
That wasn't a problem.
164
But the other...
165
I've never been accused of that.
166
Right.
167
Exactly.
168
Nor have I.
169
However, the other thing was, what might he say that might be surprising or troubling?
170
And how am I going to manage that?
171
And then you go in with this confidence that kind of whatever comes down the pike, we're ready for it.
172
And you may use them, or you may not use them.
173
But having them just has you this sense of preparedness.
174
Right.
175
And that helps you be confident and more present because you're not reaching ahead, thinking what's coming.
176
You do a good job of preparing to ask the questions you ask on your podcast.
177
I saw that firsthand.
178
I've listened to the show and see how you do that.
179
That preparation in advance, although I know that I'm recommending everybody cyber stalk people, but I do think it's important to do your homework.
180
What advice do you have for asking questions that can really help focus and guide communication and conversations?
181
Specificity in the question is key.
182
Specificity rules in the world, in my opinion.
183
People want to hear stories that are specific, not general, and they want to hear questions that are specific.
184
But then my second tip helps take up a little bit of pressure off, because I think the follow -up question is arguably more important than the initial question.
185
Because the initial question gets the listeners and the guests, if we're talking about a podcast, into a certain space.
186
And there might be some hemming and hawing as they gather their thoughts.
187
But then they say something.
188
And now they're warmed up.
189
And their audience is warmed up.
190
And now you can come up with a follow -up question that might be the meaty question.
191
And I've heard people who are very good who do interviews, you know, David Letterman, Johnny Carson.
192
If you watch, their follow -ups were always very good.
193
In addition to being specific and being open to asking follow -up questions,
194
the use of questions isn't just for people who do interviewing you can be very effective in a meeting
195
and giving feedback through asking focus specific questions
196
and in some ways I think people receive
197
that in a more open way than
198
if I give you some declarative statement yes I think you're absolutely right I notice
199
that students might like my PhD students the last thing
200
that they get good at before they're ready to launch
201
and graduate is answering questions after a seminar because they come to it thinking that questions are an attack.
202
And so they get defensive.
203
Their answers are almost off -putting.
204
And so there's a mentorship that you do to say, you need to consider every question as a little gift.
205
It's a gift.
206
It shows, I listened to what you just said.
207
I've processed it.
208
And now I actually want to have a conversation with you.
209
It doesn't get any better than that.
210
So yes, I'm a big fan that questions can be powerful.
211
They can say, thank you.
212
They can say, I heard you.
213
And they can say, and I have a little bit of an opinion here without even saying it as, I have a little bit of an opinion here.
214
Right.
215
Seeing questions and actually lots of spontaneous situations like giving feedback
216
and even introducing somebody as opportunities rather than threats and challenges is a fundamental mindset shift.
217
And I love that you spend time with your students helping them get there because many of it's instinctual.
218
When somebody comes up with a question, we get defensive.
219
But if we can see it as an opportunity to connect, to learn, to collaborate, I think is wonderful.
220
My best friend is a sports writer.
221
But really more importantly, he's a journalist.
222
He's famous for making his points with these very understated, beautiful questions where he doesn't even have to follow up
223
and tell you what he really thinks because it's obvious from his question.
224
And I think to myself, what a great journalist he is and was because of this skill.
225
We had a whole episode with Deborah Shifrin on how to ask good questions.
226
She said to pause.
227
So after you ask the question, pause.
228
And after the person answers, pause even longer because more comes out.
229
I'd love to move to another area where you are an expert.
230
You work on highly complex topics, but you also work in highly complex teams with people spread
231
out all over the place with different areas of expertise in different disciplines.
232
What best practices do you use to foster creativity and collaboration
233
while trying to avoid destructive conflict and repetitive actions and wastes of time?
234
It has become clear that team science is the most effective and is the most exciting in many ways.
235
You must understand and acknowledge the rewards and motivations of your collaborators because they are unlikely to be identical to your own.
236
And if you leave that unstated or worse, not understood, it's just a recipe for a lot of wasted energy and wasted words.
237
So understand that.
238
leads to number two, which is you have to build the relationship, the human relationship, separate from the scientific or business collaboration.
239
And those two go together, understanding and building a relationship.
240
But that time, which is kind of a pain in the neck, because it means you have to have lunch with them.
241
And maybe you don't want to have lunch.
242
Maybe you want to just take five minutes to shove food down your throat because you're busy.
243
But the time to build that relationship pays off in spades.
244
So those two things come first.
245
Then you have to, I think diversity in teamwork has become, there's now literal evidence that if everybody looks and sounds like you
246
and has the same training and the same perspective and the same goals and motivations, as I talked about a moment ago, that is not the recipe for the best team.
247
So you have to take a hard look at who you've invited to the room.
248
And if you're really brave and courageous, you will say, this is a good group, but this is not the right group for this project.
249
And we either need to add to it or, you know, or even more difficult, I need to make some substitutions, which, you know, can be a whole set of issues.
250
And then it's about roles and responsibilities.
251
And with the relationship in place and with an understanding of the reward systems and with a diversity, now you can say finally,
252
okay, here's what we're trying to do.
253
How are we going to break this down
254
and how are we going to do roles and responsibilities so that people feel like they're part of a team, that it's functioning?
255
And then obviously, and I could not be on this podcast without saying, having mechanisms for both formal and informal communication in place and understood.
256
A lot of richness in that answer.
257
No, no, no. It's all good.
258
The fact that you first have to get alignment on goals and expectations is critical, forming those relationships, which then allow much of what you've said.
259
And I will just put an exclamation point on this notion of diversity.
260
Diversity of opinions and experience and goals is what brings around the richness, but also requires that you have to define the roles, responsibilities, and ways of communicating.
261
Because if people have those differences, they bring that different way of communicating too.
262
I want to drill down on one aspect that I was very specific in the question I asked.
263
I said avoiding destructive conflict.
264
I know in the work you do that encouraging some disagreement and conflict is actually helpful to achieving the goals.
265
How do you thread that needle?
266
Where it comes up in my life literally every week is
267
that all the students and postdocs in the lab take turns every week giving what we call a group meeting.
268
It's a research in progress talk about how they're going.
269
And this is with their colleagues who they sit next to all week.
270
So what's supposed to happen?
271
What's supposed to happen is we're supposed to be supportive.
272
We wanted them to feel comfortable.
273
But they're supposed to be practicing for an audience that may be hostile, like scientific colleagues can be hostile.
274
And so I, as the leader of the group, have to figure out how do I set this up so that they are getting the hardest questions,
275
the hardest, most uncomfortable, scientific, technical questions from these people that they sit with every day.
276
But it doesn't lead to a toxic environment, lack of trust, and people saying, I don't want to give my group meeting.
277
I don't trust this group.
278
I have to set it up so that they can present.
279
I can ask hard questions.
280
But then we have a culture of thanking them for the talk,
281
acknowledging the hard things that they've uncovered as hard, and thanking them for the solutions that they've produced.
282
And if I see problems, I have other communication methods in the lab to try to identify those and deal with them outside of that forum.
283
But you're absolutely right.
284
This is like the number one thing for a team leader to be aware of
285
because the rigor slash support tension is there all the time.
286
You know, Russ, one of the things I love about hosting this podcast is the ability to just talk with amazing people, yourself included, I always learn something.
287
What is something that you've learned from your many years of hosting The Future of Everything
288
that you think might help the listeners of Think Fast, Talk Smart?
289
The people who I interview, what they do is the thing that they think is the most important thing they could possibly do.
290
So you talk to a civil engineer.
291
It's not that this is one little interesting problem in civil engineering.
292
This is the most interesting problem in civil engineering to this person.
293
And indeed, it's the most important thing they can think of doing.
294
And so the passion that scientists and engineers, because that's what we focus on, although we have other guests as well,
295
but the passion of scientists and engineers in approaching their work and the magnitude of that passion probably shouldn't have surprised me,
296
but it did.
297
And I learned that you need to get to people's passion to really understand what makes them tick.
298
And inviting that passion out through questions
299
and through giving space for them to do that can really help you connect and build a stronger relationship.
300
So you don't have to be a podcast host.
301
to take advantage of that.
302
And that's one of the things I love too, is just finding people's passion.
303
Sometimes people are so passionate about something I never thought of and just their passion makes me interested.
304
And some people don't wear it on their sleeve and you have to work a little bit to get it out, but it's always there.
305
If you listen to Think Fast, Talk Smart, you know I believe communication is something we can all get better at.
306
And getting better takes more than simply learning new ideas, it takes practice.
307
That's why I love teaching communication essentials for work and life through Stanford Continuing Studies.
308
We explore the communication challenges that show up in everyday life, how to be more persuasive, tell better stories, strengthen your presence,
309
navigate difficult conversations, and connect with others more effectively.
310
Along the way, you'll hear from expert guest speakers, learn practical techniques, and most importantly, have opportunities to put those ideas into practice.
311
My goal is simple, to help you become a more confident, clear, and effective communicator at work and in your life.
312
If that sounds like something you'd like to work on, I'd love to have you join me.

That's continuingstudies .stanford .edu slash tfts.
315
Well, I know you listen to the podcast, so you know that before we end, I like to ask three questions.
316
One I create just for you.
317
Oh, my goodness.
318
This is so exciting.
319
And two that are similar for everybody else I interview.
320
You up for yours?
321
Yeah, absolutely.
322
All right.
323
You are very future -focused.
324
So what is one thing about the future that you're particularly excited about?
325
I am excited about young people.
326
Young people starting to form their lives and their direction.
327
Without fail, every year gives me hope for the future.
328
As you may have come to your attention, the world is currently facing a lot of problems.
329
And it's very easy to get very negative.
330
And if you want to combat that negativity, be involved in an admissions process
331
or a hiring process of young people like for their first job or for their next job.
332
And if you're not inspired, then I think you need to do some deep introspection.
333
I love that answer simply because I have lots of friends who are getting curmudgeonly and they will say, you know, these young people, what's this world going to amount to?
334
And I say, hey, it's us that's causing the problems because if you come in and see my students or the people I coach, there's a lot of hope.
335
Yes.
336
And there's a lot of excitement.
337
And I'm glad you echoed that because I say that all the time.
338
Question number two, who is a communicator that you admire and why?
339
My dad.
340
Tell me why.
341
He had a great voice much better than mine.
342
He had an FM voice and he had a great way with words.
343
And he did lots of the things that you discuss all the time.
344
When I'm trying to do my best at communicating, I'm channeling dad.
345
I actually am getting a little choked up because I feel exactly the same way about my father.
346
My father had an amazing resonant voice, was a great communicator.
347
Get to the point.
348
What's the point?
349
And it really helped me try to be more focused and concrete.
350
So if I may, between the podcast we did this morning and the more we're doing now, I gave a talk and somebody said, what's the best piece of advice you ever got?
351
And I said it was from my dad and it was get to the point.
352
Oh, how funny.
353
Question number three.
354
What are the first three ingredients that go into a successful communication recipe?
355
You need to know who you're talking to.
356
You need to know the audience and a little bit about their goals, hopes, and dreams.
357
Second, you need to be specific in your message.
358
And then the third one I'm going to go with, make sure you try to keep it fun, light, and enjoyable.
359
Like, life is short.
360
And if you can do something with a sense of joy, why not do it with a sense of joy?
361
So even if it's the most mundane message, think about how can I make this a positive experience for me
362
and for the person who's about to listen to me and have a conversation with me.
363
So those are my three.
364
This notion of connection and engagement through the energy you bring to your topic is really important.
365
There are people who study things that I don't understand and prior to hearing them talk about it or write about it, I didn't care about.
366
But their passion and their ability to connect it to me and make it engaging makes a big difference.
367
I agree.
368

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
