We talk to creators, entrepreneurs, and brilliant humans about their journey to create meaning in work.
On this episode of Never Work a Day, we sit down with Michael Ventura, founder of the strategy and design firm Sub Rosa and author of Applied Empathy and the upcoming Constellation Thinking. For nearly two decades Michael helped organizations like Google, Nike, GE and the United Nations turn purpose into practice, and he has taught empathy at Princeton and West Point. We talk about why a company should make its story true before it tells it, what leading 40 soldiers from every walk of American life teaches about management, why selling his company was a way to honor his 24-year-old self, and why a constellation of pursuits serves us better than a single North Star.
