Business Leader and Bestselling Author Aliza Knox joins Wendy Appel and Mary Beth Sawicki of Trilogy Effect in this episode of the Being Human Is Good for Business podcast to discuss her new book Don’t Quit Your Day Job: The 6 Mindshifts You Need to Rise And Thrive At Work. 

Aliza built and led Asia-Pacific (APAC) businesses for three of the world's top technology firms—Google, Twitter and Cloudflare. Named 2020 APAC IT Woman of The Year, she spent decades as a global finance and consulting executive and is now a non-executive board director, a senior advisor for BCG, and a regular columnist for Forbes. 

In her new book, Aliza shares her experience in leading global businesses and stories about many of the people she’s mentored around the world, from recent college graduates to mid-career and senior business leaders. 

“Often, people think there’s a tradeoff between their work and their life, and to be happy, they’re going to have to leave their job,” explains Aliza. “But that’s not always the case. There's a lot you can do to make your whole self happy and keep your career on track. Often it just takes a mindshift to gain a new perspective on your work and where it fits into your life.”
