Julia Hobsbawm is the award-winning author, commentator, publisher and, quite possibly, one of the world’s most connected women.  During the course of her brilliant career, Julia has faced serious business, personal and health crises and yet … she strides on, time and time again, with a drive and resilience – and a sense of humour – from which we can all learn.     From living in the shadow of her renowned father, the Communist historian, Eric Hobsbawm, to founding – and in one instance closing - her own media companies, receiving an OBE and writing seven books … Julia’s is a life littered with triumph and crisis. Notably, in this conversation, she talks powerfully and candidly about the ‘identity crisis’ of being a Jewish woman who does not stand with Israel in the war with Gaza.   Her latest book Working Assumptions is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of work … and the workplace crisis business leaders are now wrestling with.   Book <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Working-Assumptions-Thought-Before-Generative/dp/191679727X/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;pd_rd_w=RKwl8&amp;content-id=amzn1.sym.3413293e-3815-4359-96ba-1ec5110e0b30&amp;pf_rd_p=3413293e-3815-4359-96ba-1ec5110e0b30&amp;pf_rd_r=260-8318628-6135432&amp;pd_rd_wg=PJbnr&amp;pd_rd_r=409282bc-2b19-48a4-b438-4460ec606de9&amp;ref_=aufs_ap_sc_dsk" target="_blank">Working Assumptions: What We Thought We Knew About Work Before Covid and Generative AI - And What We Know Now</a>, 2024.   Links     Julia’s Podcast: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3SAjjNiMYSNWQTMHazqcRS" target="_blank">The Nowhere Office</a> Julia’s SoulCycle: <a href="https://www.justgiving.com/page/julia-hobsbawmsixtysoulcyclesforjessica" target="_blank">https://www.justgiving.com/page/julia-hobsbawmsixtysoulcyclesforjessica</a>  Stream/buy ‘Allies’ by Some Velvet Morning: <a href="https://ampl.ink/qp6bm" target="_blank">https://ampl.ink/qp6bm</a>     Some Velvet Morning Website: <a href="http://www.somevelvetmorning.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.somevelvetmorning.co.uk</a>       Your Daily Practice: Sleep by Myndstream: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5OX9XgJufFz9g63o2Dv2i5?si=b2f9397c92084682" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/track/5OX9XgJufFz9g63o2Dv2i5?si=b2f9397c92084682</a>     Host – Andy Coulson    CWC team: Jane Sankey, Louise Difford, Mabel Pickering    With special thanks to Ioana Barbu and the brilliant people at Global       For all PR and guest approaches please contact – <a href="http://coulsonpartners.com/" target="_blank">podcast@coulsonpartners.com</a>    Transcript https://www.crisiswhatcrisis.com/podcasts/julia-hobsbawm-on-battling-sepsis-facing-down-failure-and-being-a-jew-who-doesnt-support-israel/
