In June Keith interviewed Dr Ian Pollard For the Australian Institute of Company Directors about his new book "Investing In Life". The interview is available to listed to via podcast by clicking here. Dr Pollard tells Keith that he was inspired to write this book after seeing a gap in the market for books that look at the business case for investing in ones self. He cites that there are many books out there teaching us how to develop our Emotional Intelligence, or negotiation skills and our networking ability but nothing that gives a holistic perspective on the returns that one can expect from investing in YOU.

In his book Dr Pollard describes how his "Life Capital" is made up from Human Capital, Social Capital and Financial Capital while giving us compelling reasons to invest in our lives.

This is a fascinating interview about an interesting and thought provoking book. Well worth a listen. The book also has a website dedicated to it where you can actually read the full publication online!
