I don’t know if the basic idea that it’s okay to look dumb will ever catch on, though. There’s a lot of self interest and direct ego motive going against it.
And it’s a balance too that self interest and ego gets alot done too. It’s just getting over protective of ego or too self interested (very hard in an economy where a lot employers are straight up conmen) that leads to these pain points.
I do find in the rooms I’ve had the pleasure of being with the smartest people in a field were always full of reasonably humble people.
I love that.
