Have you ever wondered how great leaders keep up their knowledge in this fast-paced digital landscape? Harvard Business Review<\/a> suggests that they are constant learners. In this fast-paced world, podcasts seem to be a wise choice.<\/p>\n In fact, it seems podcasts are becoming popular again. Every day, new podcasts are being launched. In October 2015, Muffinworks attempted to create a visual map of?the world of podcasts<\/a> and it’s HUGE!?(click on the link to get a glimpse of the Podcast Universe)<\/p>\n Of course, you can’t listen to all of them. So how do you choose the ones that will actually help? First of all, start with your goal. For this particular topic, I chose “productivity” and in order to create my ultimate must-listen-to list<\/strong>, I searched for other articles out there to see what they recommend. The names that I came across most often landed on “the list”. But most importantly, I wanted to be sure the host of the podcast was deeply interested in this particular topic. So I chose people who actively share their own experience and findings on how to get more done and be successful at work.<\/p>\n Take a look at my shortlist and let me know what other podcasts you’d add to the list.
