Who am I?
From running production at tech start ups to managing products at one of Australia’s biggest Universities, I’ve had the fortune of having great exposure to the world of products. Here’s a few podcasts that are worth a listen! Things I wish I had when I was starting off! These are the resources that form how I do things now! People who are building, managing, designing or do anything with products sometimes it’s hard to tell the family bbq just what’s keeping you busy.

1. The Big Con Podcast

Welcome to The Big Con, the podcast where we dive into the wild world of business blunders and figure out where things went wrong (or right, but let's be real, mostly wrong) and use the benefit of hindsight and a healthy dose of schadenfreude to look at where there was an impact on either their profit, their brand, or something much more dire. Hosted by Emily Kay, a Harvard Extension Student and founder of the Big Consulting Agency, Dale, a business nerd with an obsession for many things, the Big Con examines the stories of businesses that refused to invest in strategy and where we can learn from their mistakes.
