She’s in Dubai at the Emirates Literature Festival to talk about her book Bet on Yourself. Incredibly, she’s taken the leadership principles that guide the work of celebrity CEOs and explains how to use them to take a bet on yourself and use them as stepping stones towards a dream career.
Ann is so warm and full of amazing advice. I loved what she had to say about making sure your job gives as much to you as you do to it - and also her take on the tech bro culture and how to navigate an often patriarchal business system.
And of course I had to ask her what it was really like to work for Jeff Bezos in such a once in a lifetime role.
Whether you’re just starting on the career ladder, feeling stuck in your current job, or wanting to finally be recognised for promotion or a leadership role, this episode will help you identify how to create something extraordinary from ordinary opportunities. That Even when options appear limited, you can take charge of your career, and build a future that exceeds your wildest expectations. Please enjoy the conversation.
