Bo Burlingham’s work has had a huge impact on my work at Hospitality Mavericks. He is the author of notable books such as ‘Small Giants’ and ‘The Great Game of Business’. Currently a contributor to Forbes, Bo previously worked at Inc. magazine for over 30 years as senior editor, executive editor, and editor at large.

It’s a great honour to have Bo on the show. This interview will be shared with you in two parts – join me in part one as we delve into his early days of writing, working with Jack Stack’s revolutionary system of Open-Book Management, what inspired Bo to write ‘The Great Game of Business’, and so much more.
