Beware the Advice Monster! That’s good coaching advice from this month’s guest—best-selling author Michael Bungay Stanier. Elisabeth interviews the king of wit and clarity, while sneaking a peek at his upcoming book, The Advice Trap. Tune in for some saucy pearls of wisdom!

For Survey Says, we’ll discover where our listeners focus their 5S efforts—their own desk?—the dreaded shared drive? We’ll find out. For Q&A we’ll answer a learner’s question about how to handle a mentoring dilemma: If you’re coaching someone, and you know you can stop them from making a mistake, should you do it? And for The Printed Page, we reveal a few nuggets from Japan-Study-Trip Leader Katie Anderson’s forthcoming book. We got an advance copy of Katie’s manuscript, and it’s full of enlightening stories from her collaborator, Toyota Leader Isao Yoshino. We are chockfull of inside scoops right now. This is our final episode so sadly, this is a good-bye party, but it’s still a party so put something special in your mug and let’s hang out!
