WORKWEEK

By Ben Bradbury

Leading executive Mellody Hobson does not stray away from hardship. She sees fear as helping her future self by pursuing discomfort and hard things now instead of later. She has achieved consistent success by being a warrior against adverse circumstances while growing up, and as a woman of colour. Whether we’re having difficult conversations in the boardroom about race, or in the bedroom with ourselves, leaving your comfort zone is never a bad long term decision.
