After publishing the book, “Disrupt Yourself,” Whitney was recognized as one of the world's most influential management thinkers by Thinkers50 in 2017 and 2015.
“Finding a way to play where others aren’t,” is among the keys to innovative disruption, Johnson tells the CUNA News Podcast.

Johnson is a frequent contributor to the Harvard Business Review, and a Linkedin Influencer.
Her new book, "Build an 'A'-Team: Play To Their Strengths and Lead Them Up the Learning Curve," builds upon her work and research with teams and disruption.
