In this second episode of Outliers (which is brought to you by Flow), I sit down with Nathan Baschez (@nbashaw) — one of the world’s leading thinkers, researchers, and writers on business strategy. Listen in as we discuss:

  • Why there’s no route to success without strategy.
  • Why Nathan devotes his days to studying business strategies and theories, and to sharing his insights in his newsletter, Divinations.
  • His successes — and failures — in startups and tech.
  • Competition and decision-making in business.
