Descripción del Episodio
The holiday season is when we are most likely to give to those less fortunate.

You might think that the best way to win an argument is to offer up a lot of evidence to support the fact that you are right. If so, you might want to listen to this because it will likely change the way you argue EVERYTHING. Professor Niro Sivanathan of the London Business School is an expert on what is called the “dilution effect” which says that more evidence is not better. In fact more evidence can actually weaken your argument. Listen as he explains a better way to strengthen any argument and more importantly how to not dilute your arguments by putting all your evidence on the table. You can see his TED talk about this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=12&v=hkFCu6K8Ghw
