In this episode I discuss: 

  • Why different is better than better (even in the investment industry where we love to rank and chart errrthing) 
  • If you want to lean into what makes you different, you need to go to the edges. You need to get radical.  
  • The Bain study that reveals: 80% of executives think their company's offerings are differentiated but only 10% of their customers agree 
  • How to create a category of one 
  • What differentiation is and what it is not 
  • Why you must be brave enough to attract and repel
