Who is Brendon Burchard?

Everything Brendon Burchard has written traces back to a car crash he survived at nineteen. The three questions he says he asked himself in the wreckage, whether he had lived, whether he had loved, whether he had mattered, became the spine of a career. He was born in Montana in 1977.

After a spell in consultancy at Accenture he moved into training and research, and built a career on a single unfashionable premise: that high performance is teachable, measurable and not a matter of temperament. High Performance Habits and The Motivation Manifesto are the books that made the case; GrowthDay, the platform he founded, turned it into a daily practice for a very large audience.

He is a coach first and a writer second, and it shows in the prose: direct, structured, allergic to ambiguity. Listeners who want nuance will find him brisk; listeners who want a plan will find him unusually clear.

The title we hold is The 6 Habits of Growth, and it finds Burchard in his natural medium. He narrates it himself, which is the right call for a man who made his name on a stage rather than a page; the delivery does half the work.

Just over five hours long, it sets out six practices for personal and professional growth and then insists you actually run them, week by week. It sits across our business and personal development shelves, and it is best treated as a short course rather than a book: listen to a habit, work it for a while, come back for the next one.

Early listeners here have been unanimously enthusiastic. Have a look below and see if his brand of directness suits you.
