28: Bob Burg: How to become a 'Go-Giver'
Bob Burg is a hugely successful writer and sought after speaker who’s built his entire life’s work on the concept of GIVING.
His magnum opus, a book called “The Go-Giver”, co-authored with John David Mann, is a Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek Bestseller, and has sold nearly a million copies and translated into 29 languages. Arianna Huffington, Seth Godin and Stephen Covey recommend it as a must read.
Here's a quote I love from his book: "Most people just laugh when they hear that the secret to success is giving…. Then again, most people are nowhere near as successful as they wish they were.”
In this podcast, Bob and I have a rich converstion on:
- How he started his career and why he needed to pivot pretty quickly
- How he started his firm Burg Communications and what helped him make it successful
- His definitions of selling, giving, price and value
- His views on the reputation of 'sales' over the past 40 years
- How a job seeker can use principles from the book to create value
... and much, much more
Whether you are a job seeker, business owner or an employee, I promise you: this conversation on creating a giving and value based mindset will definitely help your career.
