She’s also Chairperson for two startups and a Non-Executive Director of a Think Tank called AsiaLink. \r\n\r\nWe love the fact that Lindley is definitely not your normal investment banker… we don’t know anyone else who uses philosophy, poetry, biology, and cross-cultural intelligence as their foundation for thinking about business and disruption.\r\n\r\nIn this episode you’ll hear Lindley share her wisdom about:\r\n\r\n \tHow she thinks - or doesn’t think - about planning her career \r\n \tWhy making mistakes can be so important\r\n \tHow to negotiate your next pay rise\r\n \tHow she learnt to push through fear\r\n\r\nWe really recommend you listen to this conversation with Lindley as she shares so many useful insights and great pieces of advice with us. \r\n\r\nEnjoy!  \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\nPhoto credit: Giammarco Boscaro, Upsplash\r\nKeen to learn more about Lindley?\r\n\r\nBooks Lindley recommends: \r\n\r\n \tWhat's in the Way Is the Way: A Practical Guide for Waking Up to Life by Mary O'Malley \r\n \tThe Essential Rumi by Coleman Barks (Author, Translator), Jalal al-Din Rumi (Author), John Moyne (Translator)\r\n \tThe Gift: Poems by Hafiz  by Hafiz (Author), Daniel Ladinsky (Translator)\r\n \tPoem by David Whyte - Start Close In - hear it here on YouTube\r\n\r\nHere are a few links of interest:\r\nAFG Venture Group Website\r\nXinja Website\r\nUmano Website\r\nMindhive Website\r\nLinkedin\r\nPeter Drucker interview\r\nJoseph Campbell Wiki ","author_name":"Claire Hatton & Greta Thomas"}
