A special request if you've read this far...

I'm in the middle of upgrading the A-Players newsletter and am considering several new names for the next phase of the journey. As part of this, I'll be changing the format of the Newsletter and providing more high signal content than ever before.

If you've got a second, I'd love your input on the new name!

For context, I'd like the name to focus on intellectual development and general thinking. I'd also like it to be simple to remember and inclusive.

If you've got a suggestion that isn't listed here, please respond to this email. I'd love to hear it :)

What should the new name for the A-Players newsletter be?
