Episode 420 - The Road Less Traveled

Aug 19, 2024

In a world that celebrates speed and working smart, adopting AI solutions and smashing simple success metrics, it can feel not just challenging but unhelpful to diverge from received wisdom. 

But if we're going to create anything of real value - in business, in writing, even in sport - we need to be ready to take the less-traveled path. Because that makes all the difference. 

In this Best Bits episode, hear from: 

  • Henry Mintzberg on cherishing anomolies; 
  • Maureen Dunne on why neurodivergence is so essential for organizations; 
  • Sol Rashidi on resisting easy answers when it comes to implementing AI projects; 
  • Cath Bishop on thinking more thoughtfully about success, in sport and life; 
  • Rob  Hatch on find what works for YOU and doubling down on it;
  • Hasan Kubba on the lean approach to writing a business book; 
  • Dougal Shaw on responding to feedback and changing paths; 
  • David B. Horne on rising to the challenge to 'think bigger'; 
  • Michelle Glogovac on the imporatance of asking the questions noone else is asking. 

My hope is that when you spot a chance to take a more interesting path this week, you'll find the courage to see where it takes you...
