Jia Jiang adventures boldly into a territory so many of us fear: rejection. By seeking out rejection for 100 days -- from asking a stranger to borrow $100 to requesting a "burger refill" at a restaurant -- Jiang desensitized himself to the pain and shame that rejection often brings and, in the process, discovered that simply asking for what you want can open up possibilities where you expect to find dead ends.

Niets heerlijker dan lekker praten met mensen die het met je eens zijn en op je lijken. Maar door al dat gepraat met "ons soort mensen", wordt jouw "eigen mening" niet erg op de proef gesteld, legt communicatiewetenschapper prof.dr. Noelle Aarts (WUR) uit. En die continue zelfbevestiging is niet goed voor jou en ook niet voor de maatschappij. Dus: let goed op tijdens dit college en haal versneld je klokkenluidersdiploma! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deze week in Universiteit van Nederland: Communicatiewetenschapper prof. dr. Noelle Aarts "We moeten praten". Hoewel het klinkt als het begin van een slechtnieuwsgesprek, is dat de boodschap van Noelle Aarts - hoogleraar Strategische Communicatie (Wageningen University). Sterker nog, we moeten beter leren praten, vooral als we het niet met elkaar eens zijn. Meer weten? Klik hier voor meer informatie! http://www.universiteitvannederland.nl/college/waarom-heb-jij-je-eigen-mening-eigenlijk-gewoon-van-je-vrienden -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Over de Universiteit van Nederland: De beste hoogleraren van Nederland geven gratis college op internet. Elke werkdag komt er een nieuw college online, en elke week een nieuwe hoogleraar. Een opname bijwonen? Dat kan! Vier avonden per maand nemen we colleges op in Club AIR, Amsterdam, en jij kunt daarbij zijn. Tijdens zo’n avond nemen we vijf colleges van een kwartier op, gevolgd door Q&A en meet and greet (want tegen die tijd is de hoogleraar een rockster). Een echte aanrader!
