The only constant in life is change.
In some instances, this change is evolutionary, with incremental, almost undetectable, steps. But oftentimes, change is revolutionary, causing disruption of the status quo. On Breaking Schemas, you'll hear from folks who have caused that kind of disruption — change-makers, category-challengers, and idea-generators who have not only navigated change but, in many ways, have rewritten the rules of the game.
Join hosts Marcus Collins and John Branch, professors at the Ross School of Business, University of Michigan as they chat with business leaders across a wide-spectrum of industries about the decisions they made along their career that catapulted them to the status of “disruptor."

Bricolage as a Disruptor with Sowmya Krishnamurthy
What happens when you combine a business degree, a passion for hip hop, and an expert lens on pop culture? Disruptive magic.
Music journalist Sowmya Krishnamurthy is the author of Fashion Killa: How Hip-Hop Revolutionized High Fashion. After earning her business degree at Michigan Ross, she moved to New York but wasn’t looking for a typical finance job that many in her cohort were after. She was there for the music.
Sowmya joins Breaking Schemas hosts Marcus Collins and John Branch to chat about the years she spent paying her dues in mailrooms and interviewing stars like J. Cole and Travis Scott before they were huge, the importance of finding your authentic personal brand, and how to leverage a bricolage kind of disruption.
*Breaking Schemas is a production of the Yaffe Digital Media Initiative at Michigan Ross and is produced by University FM.*
