About the Author

SCOTT and ALISON STRATTEN—the bestselling authors of UnMarketing, UnSelling, and UnBranding—are back! Together, they have brought their better business practices to thousands of people worldwide. Businesses like PepsiCo, Saks Fifth Avenue, IBM, Remax, Microsoft and many others have been brave enough to want their advice. Scott is an award-winning keynote speaker known for his energy, passion, knowledge, humor, and man-bun. His live and virtual presentations bring UnMarketing to life, energizing attendees, and creating experiences audiences will remember and learn from. Bridging the business gap between the virtual and real-world, Scott’s presentations not only get people laughing and thinking, but also doing. Alison does most of the writing at UnMarketing (with over a quarter of a million words between their seven books), so when you find spelling or grammar mistakes, she’s the one you need to give your feedback to. UnLeadership is their seventh book together, which represents their thoughts on the changing world of business through their experiences of entrepreneurship, two and a half degrees (Alison), not lasting long as an employee (both) and screaming at audiences around the world (Scott; Alison is more polite).
