Disagree without being Disagreeable (Newsletter 065)
Ideas spread and become influential because they win over new adherents. If you want your ideas to gain traction you must expose them to people who do not yet agree with you.
The newsletters span the breadth of Klugne and may cover any of the main topic areas. We usually pick one main theme for each newsletter, and also briefly highlight the week's posts. You can read the newsletters on a standalone basis. See if any of the titles catch your attention.
