#147: Tom Rath - Discover Your Contribution

Our guest today is Tom Rath, the New York times bestselling author of How Full is Your Bucket and Amazon's top selling non-fiction book of all time StrengthsFinder 2.0. For the past five years Tom has served as Gallup senior scientist and he recently co-founded the publishing company Silicon Guild with Peter Sims (a previous guest on this podcast). Tom has sold over 10 million books, including his latest works Life's Great Question: Discover How You Contribute to the World, and the autobiographical It's Not About You.

While many thought leaders focus on individuals “finding their passion,” Tom believes that we must shift focus outward to find work worth doing.

Join us as we discuss the “buckets” of contribution, how to have conversations at cocktail parties, and the importance of challenging experiences.
