We’ve all been there. Networking at a smart party. Presenting to a crowded room. Few of us can naturally project confidence and authority in an intimidating situation; many of us are simply lost for words. Thankfully while being confident at work isn’t something we are born with, it is something that can be taught and learned—and without sacrificing our authenticity. In this episode, Pictet’s Global Head of Branding Isabelle von Ribbentrop meets Viv Groskop -- a women who has conquered the worlds of journalism, comedy, writing, and broadcasting. She draws on what’s she learned about being confident both herself and from others in her book and podcast series How to Own the Room, and now in a new book call Happy High Status. In this conversation, Viv shares her story and her tips for being confident while still being yourself.   Listen more Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The global economy is defined by an invention every one of us uses every single day, almost without thinking about it: a technology integral not only to our daily lives but to military might and geopolitical strategy: a technology that advances so quickly there is even a famous rule to describe the pace of progress: Moor's Law. That technology is, of course, the microchip, and understanding both its history and its current importance to the global economy is vital to understanding the world of tomorrow. In the episode, Pictet's Head of Communication Hubertus Kuelps meets Professor Chris Miller, a historian at Tufts and the author of the award-winning new book Chip War.
