Summer shortcut: The best career feedback 

How often have you thought about your leadership values? Well, what if you flipped that and started thinking in terms of anti-values? 

Georgie Holt is the CEO of media start-up Flight Story - the powerhouse behind the Diary of a CEO podcast. She's also spoken a lot recently about AI and her efforts to see if she, as CEO, can remove large parts of her role. 

In this episode, she speaks about building a culture based on "founder mentality", AI and the idea that a business shouldn’t just have values - it should also have anti values.
