Episode 50 – 5 Things Learned In 50 Episodes

In this episode Mark reflects on five of the many things he has learned on the journey through the first fifty episodes of this podcast.

Those five things are within the theme of:

GLOBAL IS MORE GLOBAL THAN JUST GLOBAL
THE POWER OF AUDIENCE FEEDBACK
THE POWER OF COMMUNITY & THINKING BEYOND
ONGOING GROWTH & IMPORTANCE OF COLLABORATION
BRANDING & PROFESSIONALISM

Throughout the five points (which do overlap), Mark mentions many different episodes and interviews that came to mind as he was drawing these themes.
