How Psychedelics Enhance Modern Leadership

Season 10 Episode 18

Guest: Paul F. Austin, CEO of Third Wave

Why are C-suites adopting psychedelics? Some leaders say it gives them a competitive edge in innovation and thinking; others use psychedelics for stress relief and general mental health.

Paul F. Austin reviews the science and the trends behind this movement. He joins host Maureen Metcalf to discuss both how and why senior executives are moving these substances from taboo to corporate practice…and he provides important guidelines and limits on their use.

Here’s what Paul and Maureen cover:

1. How the link between leadership and psychedelics formed;
2. The five key elements to look for in a responsible facilitator; and
3. Though rare, the need to be aware of potential dangers.
