Ryan McMurtrie works in real estate development and property management, but his passion drives him to promote more effective and efficient debate of public issues. He has spent more than a year building and testing a set of digital tools that can show those engaged in debate how their tactics are viewed by their audience, ideally encouraging a more respectful exchange of views.
Learn more about his work in this interview from Fresh Take, and sign up to participate in the first live public event on Aug 26 in Oshkosh at Collective-Reflection.com
Less than a week before the live event to test the Collective Reflection tool, Ryan McMurtrie returned to Fresh Take to talk with Josh about the unexpected benefits that come when we open our minds to realize we might be wrong about something.
Ahead of the first in-person test drive of the Collective Reflection debate tools, Ryan joined Josh to explain how it works, how divisive debates among voters lead to dysfunction among our elected leaders, and how real-time audience feedback can help improve discussion about disagreements.
