Bruce Daisley - How 'Cartoon Boy' finds the fast lane

We wished we'd had longer with Bruce.  He's a brilliant demonstration of what you can achieve if you truly understand your strengths. He seems very able in many areas but what sets him apart is his ability to understand and therefore reach his audience. He seems to always find a way to stand out from the crowd and when he doesn't, he persists. Bruce is a people person through and through.  We talked about:

His frustration with Greenpeace*Working hard but not compromising on his 8 hours sleep.Why he shies away from telling people he works at Twitter when on holidayThe different hierarchies of Birmingham and LondonHis period working for Capital Radio, the Fawlty Towers of mediaThe cultural power of 'companions at love' The benefits of being a trouble-makerDiscovering he was the third poorest kid at schoolStudying Economics because he wanted to solve injustice*Why Bruce's next job will be an eco-warriorHow his mum encouraged him to work hard at schoolHis prolific letter writingThe influence comics played in his career His ability to get noticed*His super-skill of persistenceHow Bruce backs himselfHow Bruce always looks for the fast laneHow to go from 'bottom of the class' to 'top of the class' Bruce's time at YouTube and his approach to promoting YouTube in the early daysHow he's unafraid of rejection 'The Joy of Work' becoming Sunday Times No. 1 best seller and how it was not an accidentHow the tyranny of numbers affects your relationshipHow comparison can lead to unhappinessHow stress has become the operating system of modern-day workThe increasing importance of creativity versus  Our increasing inability to be creativeHow the science of open plan offices reduces face to face communication and increases emailsWhy he looks to create a climate rather than directThe problem with appropriating US normsHis interest in the compelling science of laughter and how it can save your lifeHow our fear of being judged leads us to become more agreeable and less authenticThe importance of finding the kid within

* We wonder what would happen if these things could come together?
