Today on the podcast Suzanne is delighted to be joined by Danusia Malina-Derben  - author, podcast host, mother of 10 (yes 10!), global leadership consultant and trusted advisor, and founder of DMD Global/C-Suite Consultant.

If that’s not compelling and fascinating enough, Danusia also brings with her two fascinating stories…

Danusia tells us about the time she came up with a new concept for a television show and pitched it. The pitch went very well, what followed turned into a fascinating legal experience as her show format was essentially stolen from beneath her. 

In this gripping episode Danusia chats to Suzanne about how she was able to regain ownership of her show by auditioning for, and winning the expert spot she had been removed from in the first place!

Suzanne and Danusia then go on to discuss the worst that could happen in her business, only in this episode it isn’t hypothetical, it actually happened. A major bank, a contract with a CEO who suddenly passed away, and a very interesting resolution… listen in to find out more.
