Book

I wrote SHAPERS: Reinvent the Way Your Work and Change the Future to explore the changing landscape of work and uncover better ways to approach the thing we spend most of our time in this life doing.

I interviewed CEOs, startup founders, innovators researchers, creatives, marketers, academics, and leaders at the most pioneering companies in the world. I captured everything I learned in this book which became a journey of self-discovery. 

SHAPERS was an instant best-seller, translated into Chinese, nominated for the business book of the year, and continues to help thousands elevate the way they work and live.
