The Mind Takeaway ’s Post

My top 5️⃣ podcasts of 2024, you ask? I listen to a lot of podcasts, especially when I'm commuting or out running (the former of which I tend to do more of and the latter less of than I like 🥹 ). There are a couple of classics that I've been listening to loyally for years, such as Adam Grant's "Rethinking," Freakonomics, Scott J. Allen, Ph.D.'s "Phronesis," Jan Rutherford and Jim Vaselopulos's "The Leadership Podcast," Mira Culic and Peter Griffiths's The Mind Takeaway , and others. But here are five podcasts I discovered and fell in love with this year: 🏗️ Big Think+'s "How to make a leader," hosted by Hannah Beaver - a show which, as the name suggests, digs below the hype and tries to uncover the nuts and bolts of good leadership. 🏄 Human Leaders's "We are human leaders," hosted by Alexis Zahner & Sally Clarke - which foregrounds the research and people behind empathetic, holistic, and relationship-based leadership. 🧗 Uphill Athlete with Steve House - as a long-time mountaineer and mountain runner, I've always looked up to Steve, not only for his epic ascents but for his reflection and wisdom on the human drive to perform (in the mountains and beyond). 🚀 The Economist's "Boss Class" with Andrew Palmer - is just that, a witty and sharp (it's the Economist, after all) look at what it takes to lead. 🇳🇴 Nicolai Tangen and Norges Bank Investment Management's "In Good Company" - conversations with big personalities out there, from science, business, and politics. A big thanks to the amazing hosts and teams behind these shows 🙏 Did I forget any? What's been on your listening list this year? PS as part of my #yearinreview I will do a separate list for history podcasts (in my mind, history deserves its own list 😊 ) --- 🔔 I write about #leadership, #technology, #history (and, especially, where they overlap). 🖇️ Feel free to follow or connect... ♻️ And thanks for re-posting...
