Humans are hardwired to add rather than subtract. Across various contexts ー whether biological, cultural or economic ー we often default towards more.

In this Gartner Talent Angle interview, Klotz makes the case for the untapped potential of less, exploring subtraction as an overlooked strategy to achieve business results.
