Description

People who write business books - at least, business books worth reading - tend to think a little differently. This ‘Best Bits’ episode features a formidable line-up of disruptors, each of whom brings a very personal toolkit for unsettling the status quo, in work and in life.

Challenging the system often starts by asking awkward questions and you'll find lots of those here. What you WON'T find are excuses. Think you’re not creative or confident enough to be an author? This is for you. 

Listen, enjoy, but don’t expect to leave with your assumptions undisturbed.

Hear from: 

  • Charlotte Otter on why we need new leaders (and how to get them); 
    Hilary Cottam on reimagining work;
    Lesie Grandy on creative velocity;
    Mike Porteous on redefining confidence; 
    Todd Sattersten on books - and publishing models - that turn things upside down; 
    Jane Friedman on why you should consider NOT writing a book; 
    Georgia Kirke on how AI can help unleash the missing voices; 
    Kerry Tottingham on how to launch a book differently. 

Let's keep shaking things up, brilliantly.
