Looking Outside is for curious people looking for a fresh take on familiar topics, in business and beyond.
The path to the c-suite is predictable and still reliant on strong commercial literacy. But while marketers are relegated to perceptions of creativity, not financial savviness, senior leaders lack the very skills they bring – curiosity. In this Business Brief, Jo reflects on the cross-functional and transdisciplinary skills needed to bring truly future-forward thinking to organizations caught up in short term thinking.
Business Brief is a (very brief) new solo series hosted by Looking Outside podcast host, strategist, former-marketer and corporate futurist Jo Lepore.
