    About this audiobook

    Are you a high potential charting your course within your current organization, a leader trying to jumpstart innovative thinking in your company? Or are you ready to do something new?

    Consider this simple yet powerful idea: disruptive companies and ideas upend markets by doing something truly different-they see a need, an empty space waiting to be filled, and they dare to create something for which a market may not yet exist. An expert in driving innovation via personal disruption, Whitney Johnson, will help you understand how the frameworks of disruptive innovation can apply to you: if you want to be successful in unexpected ways, follow your own disruptive path. Dare to innovate. Dream big dreams. Do something astonishing. Disrupt yourself. In this book, you will learn how to apply these frameworks to building a business, career-and you.

    We are living in an era of accelerating disruption-those who can manage the S-curve waves of learning and maxing out will have a competitive advantage. But this is a skill set that needs to be learned. Disrupt Yourself will help people cope with the unpredictability of disruption, and use it to their competitive advantage.

    • 5/5
      Tons of up to date high quality practical knowledge. All set up with real life stories that both ilustrate and engage. Thank you ??
    • 4/5
      Disruption, like many other business concepts, is well known and well understood. As is often the case, we don't naturally think of applying this concept to our own personal brand or career. Johnson gives a simple and fresh perspective for doing just that. I especially appreciated the content about taking risks, leading with strengths, and leveraging failure. This book reads fast, makes you stop and thinking, and is worth every second spent on either of these.
