In this interview, Adela chats with Whitney Johnson, the host of the Disrupt Yourself podcast. The theme for the October PBC playlist was “Disruption” and we listened to an episode of Disrupt Yourself with Whitney Johnson titled “#100: Take the Right Kinds of Risks.”

Whitney is an absolute powerhouse. She is ranked on the Thinkers50 list, which is a global ranking of the 50 leading management thinkers and she’s an expert on disruptive innovation and personal disruption, a framework she developed after co-founding the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Harvard Business School’s Clayton Christensen. She’s written a number of critically-acclaimed books on the power of disruption in both the business and the personal realms.
