Could Smorgasbord be for you?
You like smart thinking, but you don’t have the time to read reams of text.
You like to be up to date with the latest ideas, but new books are £30+ in hard-back.
You enjoy your work, but you think your organisation is creaking and your boss is a dinosaur.
Smart books like Nudge, Deep Work, Moneyball and Start With Why fascinate and intrigue you, but…you bought Thinking Fast and Slow and never got past the first few pages.
You could last afford the HBR subs when Jack Welch was still on the cover.
You think seven minutes is long-enough for pretty much anything, thank you very much.
Occasionally, you just want to stop and think really hard and wrestle with new concepts.
You want to improve your personal productivity and enjoy discovering workplace hacks.
You don’t want to pay the earth for great ideas.
You like magazines like Wired, Monocle, Forbes, Fast Company, Prospect, The Spectator, etc.

Why The Smorgasbord?
The dilemma: You want to invest in some time with the latest smart thinking.
Options: You could sign up for a subscription service, or a quirky online course, or simply buy some new sneakers and surf YouTube for free. There are huge amounts of views and ideas available for free, but little of it ever sticks.
Our solution: On the Smorgasbord, we read books. Lots of them. If we’ve not read a new book, then we find someone we trust who has. Then we share some thoughts on Smorgasbord and encourage you to spend your cash on something you might enjoy and then share the learning.
Every month: We share some recent recommendations to fuel your thinking, inspire new ideas and re-think your career, your organisation, or the wider landscape of business, work and smart ideas.
