Synopsis

Businessman, author, professor, and podcaster Scott Galloway offers a path forward for men and parents of boys.

The lack of attention to the growing masculinity crisis has created a void which is now being dangerously filled by the Manosphere and misogyny. Male suicide rates are sky high; employment rates are low and mental health and relationship issues are impossible to ignore. This is not just a male issue: it is affecting society as a whole.

Scott Galloway has been sounding the alarm on this issue for years. In Notes on Being a Man, Galloway explores what it means to be a man today, and provides a roadmap for healthy masculinity and mental strength. He shares his own story from boyhood to manhood. In exploring issues like childhood, depression, anger, pressure, money and relationships, he shares the sometimes funny, often painful, lessons he learned along the way.

With unflinching honesty, Scott Galloway maps out an enriching, inspiring operator’s manual for being a man today.

BOYS AND MEN ARE IN CRISIS. SCOTT GALLOWAY HAS A PATH FORWARD.

NOTES FOR BEING A MAN:

• Being a good dad means being good to women.
• Action absorbs anxiety.
• Find what you’re good at and follow your talent.
• Get out of the house.
• Take risk and be willing to feel like an imposter. This is a key to professional success, and masculinity.
• Acknowledge your blessings, and create opportunities for others.
• Be of surplus value.
• Be kind.
