About this audiobook
As new knowledge-and the possibilities that arise from that knowledge-propels us forward, leadership readiness expert and renowned author Erika Andersen suggests that success in today's world requires the ability to acquire new knowledge and skills quickly and continuously-in spite of our mixed feelings about being a novice.
In her newest book, Be Bad First, Erika explores how we can become masters of mastery; proficient in the kind of high-payoff learning that's needed today. She encourages listeners to embrace being bad on the way to being great-to be novices over and over again as we seek to learn and acquire the new skills that will allow us to thrive in this fast-changing world.
