What Listeners Say

A valuable resource for leaders seeking inspiration and insight. Mark combines his personal experiences with the perspectives of a range of compelling guests, relevant for anyone seeking to enhance innovation and entrepreneurial capabilities
Professor Rob Wolcott
Professor Rob WolcottKellogg School of Management
Mark Bidwell not only does his homework to get as much learning as possible from his guests, he himself is an expert innovator
Whitney Johnson
Whitney JohnsonInnovation and Leadership Author and Speaker
I got interested in these because Mark interviewed me for one. I've since been listening to others and have come to really enjoy the broader back-story around innovation - not just what happened by why other entrepreneurs have developed a specific point of view.
Paul Brody
Paul BrodyLeader of blockchain technology.
Mark’s podcasts are like a business person’s answer to everything all in one place. The range of guests is as diverse as the topics, and their knowledge is squeezed out by the exceptional host. True inspiration for anyone wanting to make their business life more exciting and productive.
