Episode 266 - Ahead of her time with Judy Piatkus

from The Extraordinary Business Book Club · host Alison Jones

'I think we're going to have another watershed moment... there's going to be business pre-pandemic and business post-pandemic. And I wonder how many business books are going to feel out of date.' As a woman founder in publishing, Judy Piatkus is one of my heroes. Working from home long before it was fashionable, navigating caring for a child with special needs alongside the casual sexism of the 1980s, she quietly built up a pioneering company specialising in self-development. And along the way she transformed her own consciousness through the books she brought into the world.  Her story reflects many common themes of entrepreneurship, women at work, the digital revolution and the the power of books and of bringing people together.
