Today's guest covers a wide range of subjects: why he set up his blog The Couch Manager, why everyone should set up a blog for professional, personal and financial reasons and we even talk about failure. He's very recently (yesterday!) set up Ganttopia. Hassan Osman is an entrepreneur, author of the Amazon Kindle bestseller Influencing Virtual Teams: 17 Tactics That Get Things Done with Your Remote Employees and works as Senior Manager at Cisco. I've kept my introduction extremely short today because our conversation was very meaty and I had little to add on the subject. Here are the links and show notes. 00:30 Pilar's short intro. 04.20 The conversation starts. Hassan and Pilar catch up. 05:50 Hassan talks about why he set up his blog The Couch Manager where he blogs about virtual work and productivity. Do something small and just launch. Everything else will be easier after that. Hassan recommends David Allen's Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-free Productivity and Tim Ferriss' The 4-Hour Work Week 12
