One of my favorite business authors has just released his 15th book. The title is Own Your Work Journey by Ed Hess.

Fans of Ed Hess will be treated to a mini-memoir in the introduction of the book, and we spend the first ten minutes of this conversation talking about some of the mentors in Ed's life during his upbringing as a youth.

Other key points we hit are:

  • the quiet ego and the wild stallion that's brought under control
  • emergent thinking
  • inner peace while having an open mind
  • the keys to reflecting, listening
  • the skill of developing skills at a fast pace
  • the ongoing concept of learning, unlearning, and relearning
  • the primary reason our brains are not wired to be hyper-learners
