Episode #617 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Mirum Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.

I just love everything that this human being puts out into the world. His latest book, Friend of a Friend, is a fascinating read about how we can get the most out of our networks and relationships (and, no, it’s not about social media!). David Burkus is a best-selling author, a sought after speaker, and associate professor of leadership and innovation at Oral Roberts University. He’s delivered keynotes to the leaders of Fortune 500 companies and the future leaders of the United States Naval Academy. His TED talk, Why you should know how much your coworkers get paid, has been viewed close to two million times, and he is a regular contributor to Harvard Business Review. He’s written three books: The Myths of Creativity, Under New Management and now Friend of a Friend. This new book is surprising in nature. It’s a fresh perspective on how to grow your network and build key connections — one based on the science of human behavior, not rote networking advice that worked for one individual over the course of their career. So, is there science behind how people connect and grow their wealth? Listen in. Enjoy the conversation…
