WHAT READERS SAY
Testimonials

“Leadership starts with restlessness: something needs to be better.  This book provides the compass and map to take the first steps and discover who you need to be to make that difference.”

Michael Bungay Stanier, author of bestseller, The Coaching Habit

“The art of exploration is the most effective approach to thriving in this rapidly changing world. Explore or Expire pushes individuals and teams to enter the unknown and emerge as more competent, creative, and generative humans.”

Cheryl Yaffe Kiser, executive director of the Institute for Social Innovation at Babson College and Babson Social Innovation Lab and coauthor of Creating Social Value

“Explore or Expire is a timely resource that everyone needs to successfully navigate toward the essentials for both themselves and their organizations. The principles in this book should be in every leader's tool kit to create a life that really matters, personally and professionally. It's in mine!”

Andrew Zimmern, chef, television personality, writer, and global explorer

“Essentialists explore MORE than their Nonessentialist counterparts. They create space for it. The rest of us get caught up in a Zoom, eat, sleep, repeat lifestyle. If you really want to break free from this and operate at your highest point of contribution, read and use this gem of a book.”

Greg McKeown, author of New York Times bestsellers EFFORTLESS and ESSENTIALISM

“Studio/E has a gift for helping high-integrity leaders discover new ways forward, even in the face of chaos and uncertainty. Explore or Expire provides not just new levels of awareness about what's possible in today's fast-shifting business realm, but also gratifying new pathways for getting there intact.”

Pilar Gerasimo, founding editor of Experience Life magazine, cohost of The Living Experiment podcast, and author of The Healthy Deviant

“Unlocking the true potential of organizations hinges on retaining their intrapreneurs: the internal entrepreneurs who drive everyday innovation. Explore or Expire is a transformative guide that tackles this challenge head-on. The proven principles within nurture the confidence of intrapreneurs and empower leaders to cultivate an environment of autonomy, smart risk-taking, and passion, the very elements that create a road map to sustainable growth.”

Dr. Simone Ahuja, global innovation expert, keynote speaker, and bestselling author
