About this listen
In war, the greatest threat is often the one you don't see—your own mind.
From the heat of the battlefield to the tension of the strategy room, The Unknown Enemy exposes a hidden threat that can bring even the most formidable military forces to their knees: Theory of Mind Errors.
In this gripping exploration, Tim Short peels back the layers of human psychology to reveal how misjudgments, false assumptions, and cognitive traps turn victory into disaster.
- Psychology Meets Warfare: Discover how biases like overconfidence, confirmation bias, and reactive devaluation can distort judgment at every level of command.
- Real-World Case Studies: From the fog of war in historical conflicts to modern military blunders, see how these errors have changed the course of history.
- Essential for Military Leaders and Strategists: Whether you're on the front line or in a boardroom, understanding these errors can mean the difference between success and failure.
The Unknown Enemy is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand how the human mind can become its own worst enemy in the high-stakes world of military strategy.
Because when you can't see the enemy within, you don't stand a chance.
