Eric Solomon, founder and CEO of The Human OS, and Ex-YouTube, Spotify, and Instagram, shares his background and journey from academia to brand building and leadership.

Eric discusses the need for businesses to focus on qualitative outcomes and not just measurable metrics. He also highlights the role of brand in internal and external positioning and the need for organisations to embrace radical collaboration. Eric's intention for the new year is to collaborate with good people who are committed to making positive change.
