5 Mental Models to Future-Proof Your Career

Chosen and stress-tested by a brain researcher — with the evidence behind each one.

A 20-minute PDF: five thinking tools — First-Principles Thinking, Signal vs. Noise, Hypothesis Testing, Second-Order Thinking, and Inversion — each with a worked career example, a 10-minute exercise, and an honest evidence grade (Strong / Moderate / Emerging) with one primary citation. Graded the way a scientist grades evidence, not the way a marketer does.
