Episode 164 of theBusiness Bookshelf podcast - Alistair Gordon - Co-author of "Master Expert: How to use Expertship to achieve peak performance, influence and seniority in a technical role". 

Alistair is the CEO of Expertunity, an expert coach, speaker and author. A long-time veteran of the media and organisational development worlds, he has been publisher of one of Australia's best-known business magazines, BRW.

Alistair is the co-author of “Master Expert: How to use Expertship to achieve peak performance, influence and seniority in a technical role”.  It's time technical specialists like yourself got the same deal as managers.

From the very first day a new manager starts work, they're given a LOT of help. A career ladder. Appraisals, Mentoring. Networking. Capability frameworks. Support, connections - they're trained to deal with whatever business problems come along.

Technical people don't get that kind of support, and it's time they did. Master Expert details how to evaluate the performance of technical specialists, and includes a capability framework to understand your own and your team's progress toward Master Expert status.

Alistair has been coaching developers, scientists, lawyers, engineers, policy writers, economists, medical researchers and other technical specialists for close to ten years now, and their book distils everything they've learned.
