Publisher's summary
Are you a high potential charting your course within your current organization, a leader trying to jump-start innovative thinking in your company? Or are you ready to do something new? Consider this simple yet powerful idea: disruptive companies and ideas upend markets by doing something truly different - they see a need, an empty space waiting to be filled, and they dare to create something for which a market may not yet exist.
An expert in driving innovation via personal disruption, Whitney Johnson will help you understand how the frameworks of disruptive innovation can apply to you: If you want to be successful in unexpected ways, follow your own disruptive path. Dare to innovate. Dream big dreams. Do something astonishing. Disrupt yourself.
In this audiobook you will learn how to apply these frameworks to building a business, a career - and you. We are living in an era of accelerating disruption - those who can manage the S-curve waves of learning and maxing out will have a competitive advantage. But this is a skill set that needs to be learned. Disrupt Yourself will help people cope with the unpredictability of disruption and use it to their competitive advantage.

We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

Many of us dread having to convey our ideas to others, often feeling ill-equipped, anxious, and awkward. Public speaking experts help by focusing on planned communication experiences such as slide presentations, pitches, or formal talks. Yet, most of our professional and personal communication occurs in spontaneous situations that creep up on us and all too often leave us flustered and stumbling for words. Stanford lecturer, podcast host, and communication expert Matt Abrahams provides tangible, actionable skills to help even the most anxious of speakers succeed when speaking spontaneously.

You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.

No data is completely safe. Cyberattacks on companies and individuals are on the rise and growing not only in number but also in ferocity. And while you may think your company has taken all the precautionary steps to prevent an attack, no individual, company, or country is safe. Cybersecurity can no longer be left exclusively to IT specialists. Improving and increasing data security practices and identifying suspicious activity is everyone's responsibility, from the boardroom to the break room.

The pressures on organizations to change will only increase over the next decades.

In Leading Change, Kotter identifies an eight-step process that every company must go through to achieve its goal, and shows where and how people—good people—often derail.

Why do some products get more word of mouth than others? Why does some online content go viral? Word of mouth makes products, ideas, and behaviors catch on. It's more influential than advertising and far more effective. Can you create word of mouth for your product or idea? According to Berger, you can. Whether you operate a neighborhood restaurant, a corporation with hundreds of employees, or are running for a local office for the first time, the steps that can help your product or idea become viral are the same.

Story
Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

So helpful to those considering career disruption
So thankful that I read this book. I have already started the process of a major career disruption and live daily with defending my decision to all who know me. Hearing the author's words and examples of those who have successfully come through their disruption helps me to feel understood, supported, and more positive about my future. Thank you, Whitney.

Very disruptive and thus helpful!
The concept of the S curve and how it affects our personal and work life is fascinating. Well worth a listen!

It's ok
Nothing new, but not a bad primer. The advantage of this book is that it's a fast read and gets one thinking about personal innovation.
But it's pretty generic and the narrator sounds computer generated.

Another great book by Whitney Johnson!
Loved this book! I like this format better than the first book, with more of her own experiences. My only "complaint" is that it wasn't longer! Great job.

News you can use! Smart, approachable & helpful.
Would you listen to Disrupt Yourself again? Why?
This book is full of little truths that spoke to me. On second listen, more truth nuggets for growth stood out. A lot of books like this talk AT you, this book does more than just provide tips, it opens your mind. Johnson takes you on her journey (highs and lows) and her story is relatable; so much so that I saw myself in the narrative. My story is different but this book reminds me of lessons to be learned from my past and suggests new ways to be excited about the future!! YES I WOULD LISTEN TO IT AGAIN — AND I HAVE :-)
What other book might you compare Disrupt Yourself to and why?
7 Habits for Highly Effective People, by Stevan Covey, comes to mind when I think of a book I might compare Disrupt Yourself. But they are different. I feel this book is more universal in that it speaks to woman and men. Although Covey's book is not exclusionary, Johnson's book is so approachable that it just feels more universal to me.
Which character – as performed by Cyndee Maxwell – was your favorite?
N/A
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
My "extreme reactions" were "ah-ha" moments. I didn't ever cry; there were parts that gave me a chuckle. Mostly my mind was swirling with how to make my pretty good life even better. :-)
Any additional comments?
This is the PERFECT audio book because it opens up creative and accessible portals to self-betterment. It's great when you can give it your full attention but also great while cooking, painting and commuting (all things I did the first time through the recording). My life is better for having listened, and re-listened, to this book!
