Shaa Wasmund MBE is an award-winning entrepreneur and three-times #1 bestselling author.
Her first book ‘Stop Talking, Start Doing’ knocked Sir Richard Branson off top spot and stayed at #1 in the WH Smith charts for a record 14 months. Shaa’s since gone on to sell more than 250,000 books in 30+ countries.
Through her company The Freedom Collective, Shaa and her business partner Matt Thomas help coaches, consultants, trainers, therapists and business owners to build their personal brands, create digital products, publish bestselling books and scale their income online.
Shaa’s a founding ambassador for the Business Book Awards and specifically wanted to champion its ‘Exceptional Book By A Woman Award’.
“An exceptional book is an exceptional book and gender shouldn’t come into it – except that last year all the winners of the Business Book Awards were men. Everyone involved in the awards agreed this needed to change and I was only too happy to help make this happen. I’m delighted to say the number of books by women entered, shortlisted (and hopefully winning) this year has increased across the board. That’s proof to me that there are incredible female authors out there and there’s a real need to recognise them – and, by doing so, encourage even more. Business needs the voices of men and women and I sure as hell ain’t one for keeping quiet! Big up to all of this year’s winners – but especially the women for showing up and creating real change with both their words and wisdom.”
