Shawn Kanungo On Becoming A Bold One – This Week’s Six Pixels of Separation Podcast

Episode #861 of Six Pixels of Separation – The ThinkersOne Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to

I first met Shawn Kanungo many years back (we share the same speaking bureau). He was also on the speaking circuit and making quite a ruckus (he still is). We became fast-friends. Shaw recently published his first book, The Bold Ones – Innovate And Disrupt To Become Truly Indispensable. While he’s known for his thinking on innovation and strategy, Shawn also has incredible video skills. From his virtual presentations (that are next level) to his work on TikTok. Prior to this work, Shaw spent over a decade working at Deloitte. His success at the consultancy paved the way for him to pursue a career in speaking and innovation on his own. Shawn helps people to think differently, to make bold decisions, and to create an environment of collaboration and innovation in their work. By sharing his personal story, Shawn demonstrates the power of collective action and encourages readers to take action and make a difference in their organization. Enjoy the conversation…
