About the show

Matt Jones has built and sold one of Australia’s great modern brands, Four Pillars Gin. Alongside the power of making great gin, the success of Four Pillars was driven heavily by the power of story. In his new podcast, StoryWork, Matt talks to some of Australia’s most successful business leaders and thinkers. And he asks them to share the secrets of their success, shedding a light on how they put their stories to work. Story is the original technology of understanding. And from building a business to navigating your career, story might just be the most powerful tool you have. Listening to StoryWork is an education in the power of story to drive growth. StoryWork is a podcast for business builders and career builders, for leaders and creators, for start-up entrepreneurs and ambitious executives. Because we all need to figure out how to put the power of story to work for us.
