Josh Turner: Taking a stand: How Dyslexic Thinking built a business and helped the homeless.

from Lessons In Dyslexic Thinking

Can socks change the world? Dyslexic entrepreneur, Josh Turner, thinks so. He used his Dyslexic Thinking to set up the phenomenal social impact business, Stand4Socks, which donates a pair of socks, for every pair bought. So far, he has donated half a million pairs of socks to homeless people in the UK, Europe and vulnerable people in the Ukraine. He tells Kate how his Dyslexic Thinking skills help him to solve problems creatively and how they took him from ‘bottom of the class’ to creating a ‘best-in-class’ social impact business that’s good for people and the planet.Powerful stories | Experts in Dyslexic Thinking | Inspiring dyslexics This podcast is sponsored by Microsoft, who like us are passionate about empowering Dyslexic Thinking.
