Noam Bardin is drawn to working on world-changing ideas. As the former CEO of Waze, the popular traffic crowdsourcing app, he got the chance to do that. Now, as Founder and CEO of social media startup Post News, he’s on to his next big idea: bring civil discourse and fact-based journalism back into our feeds. Post isn’t another “Twitter alternative,” Noam says; it’s an antidote to the toxic brew of misinformation and echo chambers that have been swirling on the big social media platforms and harming society for years. Noam explains how Post plans to reshape the media landscape by rewarding hundreds of publishers, journalists, and creators via micropayments as an alternative to ads and subscriptions. He also recounts important lessons learned from early on in his career and from his time at Waze on how to make big decisions and engage a community of users to create experiences they love. Having seen social media's harms firsthand, Noam wants to realign platform incentives at Post to reduce polarization, elevate fact-based discussions, and counter the global rise of authoritarianism. It’s a bold, ambitious mission. Is Post part of the next great wave of social media?
