7PS: Why I stopped writing for Harvard Biz Review πŸ–ŠοΈ

Read time: 1 minute, 310 words.

I wrote this article.

Harvard Business Review said was one of the 30 most influential in its 100-year history.
​
So, I wrote a follow up article, expecting they’d publish it.
​
Nope.
​
My editor had left.
​
The new editor wanted many edits – and then maybe they’d publish.
​
It got me thinking:
​
Why do I want HBR to publish my piece?
​
So, I stopped sending my articles to HBR & other outlets.

πŸ‘‰πŸ½ This is what I do instead.

You can try this approach.
