Watch the video interview on YouTube:
Looking Outside is for curious people looking for a fresh take on familiar topics, in business and beyond.
Who will run your business in the future? We like to study, interview and market to young people, but are we really ready to handle the feedback they're serving?

Business Brief is a (very brief, just 5 mins) new solo series by Jo Lepore, with totally off the cuff business implications of the biggest emerging topics.
