How do you transform a top three ad agency into number one? Well, Steve Harris, Chairman & CEO of The Brand Agency, explains his approach. As former President of the Fremantle Dockers, he was able to bring an elite-sport mindset into a creative business, and give the culture a good shake up. As he tells host, Lisa Alexander, while it’s been a mammoth challenge, he’s had a lot of guidance and support along the journey, and the results speak for themselves.
Lisa Alexander AM, is the former head coach of the Australian National Netball team, the Diamonds, and it’s fair to say she knows a thing or two about building high performing teams.

This week we’re talking with the author of a new biography of this enigmatic philosopher.

What is civilisation? A place, an ideal, a culture? Is civilisation under threat - and if so, who are the barbarians? Also, the art of the salon, a refined 18th century tradition that bridged the gap between high intellectual culture and practical everyday life. Is the salon due for a revival?

Featured Book: Permanent Record (Young Readers Edition): How One Man Exposed the Truth about Government Spying and Digital Security BUY NOW: https://www.copperfieldsbooks.com/book/9781250767912
If you were convinced it was the right thing to do, how far would you go to inform your country, your fellow citizens? Would you follow your conscience? And what would you be willing to give up?
Join us for the ONLY virtual visit in the US for the new Young Readers Edition of Edward Snowden’s book, Permanent Record! Snowden discusses his book with Cory Doctorow followed by a short Q&A.
In 2013, Edward Snowden shocked the world when he revealed that the United States government was secretly building a system of mass surveillance with the ability to gaze into the private lives of every person on earth. Phone calls, text messages, emails—nothing was safe from prying eyes. Now the man who risked everything to expose the truth about government spying describes for a new generation how he helped build that system, what motivated him to try to bring it down, and how young people can strive to protect their privacy in the digital age.

William Gibson has trained his eye on the future for decades, ever since coining the term “cyberspace” and then popularizing it in his classic speculative novel Neuromancer in the early 1980s. Cory Doctorow raved that The Peripheral is “spectacular, a piece of trenchant, far-future speculation that features all the eyeball kicks of Neuromancer.” Now Gibson is back with Agency—a science fiction thriller heavily influenced by our most current events.
William Gibson lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, with his wife. He is the author of Neuromancer, Count Zero, Mona Lisa Overdrive, Burning Chrome, Virtual Light, Idoru, All Tomorrow’s Parties, Pattern Recognition, Spook Country, Zero History, Distrust That Particular Flavor, and The Peripheral.
Cory Doctorow is a regular contributor to the Guardian, Locus, and many other publications. His award-winning novel Little Brother was a New York Times bestseller, as is its sequel, Homeland. His novella collection Radicalized was a CBC Best Ficti…
