TBL#5 Andrew Duncan- From Military Music to Brand Management

I'm excited for every podcast I produce but this one is particularly special. Andrew and I were both military musicians before transitioning to business and we shared many similar fears when making the jump. Andrew now makes his living as a Brand Manager for Proctor and Gamble, a Fortune 500 company and one of the most recognizable and far-reaching business in the world.This episode is packed with useful information for anyone looking to change careers but, spoiler alert, Andrew's music career is still alive and well! Maybe you can have it all. His show is definitely worth a listen and I hope you enjoy his thoughts on music, business, and marketing's function within an organization.If you'd like to find Andrew on social media:Twitter: @CaptainMoonshotInstagram: @aduncan412Or me:Instagram: @justinlerma1Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/justin-ryan-lerma-5a1507146/And if you'd like more information on the book list he provides, look here:The Dip by Seth Godin: buyLetters from a Stoic by Seneca (good news - this is FREE online! https://www.lettersfromastoic.net/The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday buy  Thinking in Systems: a Primer by Donella H.
