Changing the World in 2012
Maddie tagged me in a "how are you going to change the world in 2012" meme in a blog post last week. She was inspired by this post by Craig Newmark, and now she's asked a whole host of us to talk about what we're going to do in 2012 and how we're going to change the...
2011 Year End

Integrating #Humanize into Your Business
I've been pleased with the reviews that have been coming in on Humanize so far. We've got 11 on Amazon to date (but feel free to add one!), and a host of blog reviews as well. Most of them are from folks who know Maddie or me pretty well, and it certainly makes me...
Book Review: Predictable Success
A few weeks ago, Maddie and I were interviewed about Humanize by Les McKeown. Les is a best-selling author of a book titled Predictable Success, and we were interviewed for his blog. I was really impressed with him during the interview. His questions were intelligent...
