Description

Bozoma Saint John is one of the most celebrated marketing execs out there. She’s worked for Apple, Uber, Endeavor, Pepsi, and Netflix…just to name a few. But while those big names are on her resume, Boz told us about the other titles that have influenced her and her career. Like ‘single mom.’ And ‘widow.’ This week, Boz explains how her story of love, loss, and survival has made her live “urgently”, especially when it comes to work.
In this episode shares: 

What it means to live urgently at work 

Why you need to take the credit for what you do   

How we can better show up for our colleagues that are grieving 

Why grief has made her a better leader

The hardest part of writing her memoir, The Urgent Life
