Be The Boss Now

There is a boss in ALL of us - especially for those of us who have historically lacked representation at the top in leadership. The #BetheBossNow Podcast is hosted by Gregory Allan Datu Cendana, Entrepreneur and #1 International best-selling author of “Be the Boss Now: 15 Key Steps to Start, Run and Grow Your Own Business”. In this series, Gregory celebrates the entrepreneurial journeys of different folks who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, women, queer, people with disabilities, and those living at the intersections of multiple of these identities. Join us as we challenge the dominant narrative about what it means to be a boss, who gets to see themselves represented, and why fear and failure may be our greatest teachers on the road to making our biggest, boldest, and most audacious dreams a reality.
