Magnus Wood

Some conversations are difficult to have inside your own business.

About the job you’re doing. The things you can’t say. What happens when you leave — or whether you should.

I’m Magnus Wood, founder of Wild Leadership and the writer behind Gen X at Work. I’ve been at the top of a business three times and left three times, not always by choice.

Gen X at Work tells the story of our generation’s working lives: how we got here, what holding the top job takes, and what happens when the work stops before we’re ready.

Through Wild Leadership, I work with founders and senior leaders on the decisions, pressures and commercial challenges they need someone alongside them to think through.

Share your story, explore working together, or bring something you’d value a second mind on. Choose a conversation.
