Description: Growing up - did you love Where the Wild Things Are? Gorgeous book, but thing is, it's a terrible template for business. Kym Medina joins me to discuss Maurice Sendak's classic + what it teaches about seagull management. We discuss why the book lands so differently in the UK vs US, the difference between loud borrowed power + real sustainable power + why creativity collapses without responsibility. Look for more Classics episodes where we take stories that definitely aren't business books + treat them as full-on business texts. Books discussed in this episode: Where the Wild Things Are - Maurice Sendak Matilda - Roald Dahl Babar the Elephant - Jean de Brunhoff The Snowy Day - Ezra Jack Keats Kym’s Website: projectpowerplayer.com ==== If you’d like my help with your Business go to www.lizscully.com/endlessClients ==== And don’t forget to get your reading list of the 10 essential reads for every successful biz owner - these are the books Liz recommends almost on the daily to her strategy + Mastermind clients.
