Summary

If you have a corporate job, you have to watch this episode.

Today, I’m so excited to be joined by Debbie Weinstein, Managing Director at Google UK. Debbie has not only been a trailblazer in the digital and tech industries, but she’s also someone who has continuously pushed the boundaries of what’s possible in the corporate world.

I wanted this episode to be a manual for exactly how to build your dream corporate career, we get into the weeds of what it takes to get ahead, the key difference with high performers, the art of being a good manager, and generally how to navigate the complexities of the corporate world.
