Kit Yates on expecting the unexpected

These days the only thing that seems certain is uncertainty. So how do we navigate our “new normal” when it seems to change every day? Today’s guest might have a few ideas. Kit Yates is a mathematics lecturer at the University of Bath and the author of How to Expect the Unexpected: The Science of Making Predictions—and the Art of Knowing When Not To. In his book, Kit breaks down misconceptions around predictions and some common mistakes we tend to make. He sits down with Jessi to teach us all how to make better predictions and feel a bit better about the future. Follow Kit Yates on LinkedIn and check out his book, How to Expect the Unexpected.
