What if the key to surviving cutthroat office politics was mastered in 1536? 

Juliet Corbett joins me to discuss Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall + Bring Up the Bodies - and the business lessons from Thomas Cromwell's rise at Henry VIII's court.

We discuss how Cromwell mastered managing up to volatile leaders, why his network crossed every level of hierarchy + why mentors are meant to be outgrown.

Plus, why checking your sources matters + how training people who leave still benefits you.

Look for more Classics episodes where we take stories that definitely aren't business books + treat them as full-on business texts.

Books discussed in this episode:

Wolf Hall - Hilary Mantel

Bring Up the Bodies - Hilary Mantel

The Mirror and the Light - Hilary Mantel
