This week we're taking a break from the Tiny MBA podcast tour to bring you a very special conversation with a very special guest: Nilofer Merchant.
Nilofer comes with some serious credentials:
She's worked as an executive and strategic consultant at massive companies like Apple, Adobe, Autodesk, Nokia, and many more
She's shipped 18 Billion (with a B!) dollars in products across her 25 year career
She's famous for (but not always known as the source of) the phrase "sitting is the smoking of our generation" from her viral TED talk by the same name
She's written three business books, and currently writes an advice column about making hard business and life decisions that I highly recommend subscribing to: https://atwork.substack.com
But don't get it twisted: unlike many voices in positions of corporate power, Nilofer is a creator like you and me, and uses her position and experience in the business world to make the business world a better place for more people.
Nilofer is one of us :)
Which part of why I asked her to write the forward for my book, The Tiny MBA.
And here's the thing: whenever I have a conversation with Nilofer, we end up somewhere much deeper and more meaningful than where we started. We have a rapport that lets us skip the pleasantries and get right to the real stuff.
So in today's episode, Nilofer and I are inviting you into one of those conversations.
In this conversation we talk about everything from:
How we learned to seek and understand patterns in business
What we've learned from our careers of giving professional advice
And why peeing in the pool is a problem
And a lot, lot more.
With that, let's get into this very special episode with Nilofer Merchant. Here we go.
