Zain Raj, a visionary leader, business accelerator and industry futurist that combines innovation and creativity to create new business models for the future joins Enterprise Radio. Raj is the author of his new book, THE PYRAMID PUZZLE: Igniting Transformation with the Power of Trust. This episode of Enterprise Radio is on association with the Author Channel. Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Zain Raj discuss the following: In your new novel, The Pyramid Puzzle, you say the average business consultant often focuses on the wrong things when they are called in to help a struggling brand or business. What do you think most consultants get wrong? You identify trust as key to business success. Can you define trust in the context of business?

In The Pyramid Puzzle, your three protagonists put their heads together to save a legacy brand that is on the skids. Your main protagonist, Joseph Chandler, is a business professor; his role in the process is somewhat self-evident. But he works side-by-side with a young woman whose first interest is the social sciences, and her boyfriend, a philosophy major.

A visionary leader, business accelerator and industry futurist, Zain Raj combines innovation and creativity to create new business models for the future.
