From Host to Hot Seat: Reflecting with Justin Cooke
I'm Justin Cooke, and for the first time, I'm the one in the hot seat. In this episode, I'll be sharing my personal experience as the host and chairman of Bridge. This journey has been an incredible learning experience - I've even joked that it's been my personal "mini MBA." I'll discuss how the show originated, what I’ve learned from my amazing guests, and the unexpected insights I've gained along the way.
