Welcome to episode #659 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #659 - Host: Mitch Joel. We have been debating and discussing the power of technology, culture and humans for a long time. Rahaf Harfoush is a Strategist, Digital Anthropologist, and Best-Selling Author who focuses on the intersections between emerging technology, innovation, and digital culture. She teaches Innovation & Emerging Business Models at Sciences Politique’s Masters of Economics and Finance program in Paris. Before that, Rahaf was the Associate Director of the Technology Pioneer Program at the World Economic Forum in Geneva. Her first book, Yes We Did - An Insider’s Look at How Social Media Built the Obama Brand chronicled her experiences as a member of Barack Obama’s digital media team during the 2008 Presidential elections and explored how social networking revolutionized political campaign strategy. Her second book was the best selling, The Decoded Company (that she co-authored). Her latest book is Hustle & Float - reclaim your creativity and thrive in a world obsessed with work. For too long, creativity and productivity have been considered essential but unconnected. Thousands of books have been written about each of these concepts separately. In fact, nearly every business book out there tackles achievement and performance through one of these two lenses. Hustle and Float is an exploration of the increasing tensions between productivity and creativity within our personal and professional lives. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 53:25.

Welcome to episode #657 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #657 - Host: Mitch Joel. There's no denying that change is important. One of my favourite quotes of all time is this: "If you don't like change, you're going to like irrelevance even less." - Retired United States General, Eric Shinseki. But (as we all know), change is hard. Very hard. And in happens slowly... over time. What if that were not true? What if change could happen in an instant? That is the argument (and strategy) behind the book, The Holy Sh!t Moment - How Lasting Change Can Happen in an Instant by James Fell. James was in debt, drunk, flunking out, and tipping the scales toward obesity, at one point in his life. Still, there was one single moment that changed his life. It was in that moment that split his life in two, dividing it into “before,” and “after.” From there, James become one of the most popular health and fitness writers in North America (writing for the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, Chatelaine, Men’s Health, and many others). He wrote a book about weight loss (Lose It Right), but it's this new book, The Holy Sh!t Moment, that he is most excited about. Can we change in a instant and have it last forever?

Welcome to episode #656 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #656 - Host: Mitch Joel. It’s the most wonderful time of the year when I get to speak media theorist, Douglas Rushkoff. He is - without a doubt - one of the smartest humans beings on this earth that I get to call a friend. Douglas is back with one of his most compelling pieces of work. It’s not (really) about the media… it’s about us. It’s about our need to find “find the others” and figure out how we - as a team - are going to work in this ever-technological world. Humans feel more isolated and repressed than ever before, and it’s going to take teamwork to pull this all together if we don’t want to lose out to automation, robotics and algorithms. That’s his new book, Team Human. Named one of the world’s ten most influential intellectuals by MIT, Douglas Rushkoff is an award-winning author, broadcaster, and documentarian who studies human autonomy in the digital age. He hosts the popular Team Human podcast, Rushkoff has written twenty books, including the bestsellers Present Shock and Program or Be Programmed, plus he’s a regular writer for CNN, Daily Beast, and The Guardian. He is also the person who made the PBS Frontline documentaries Generation Like and The Merchants of Cool. Douglas coined such concepts as "viral media" and "social currency,” and has been a leading voice for applying digital media toward social and economic justice. He is a research fellow of the Institute for the Future, and founder of the Laboratory for Digital Humanism at CUNY/Queens, where he is a professor of media theory and digital economics. I’m up for the challenge of building team human… are you? Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:01:00. Hello from beautiful Montreal. Subscribe over at iTunes.

His work has been featured in many new outlets and publications. Many people also cite The Unmistakable Creative as being one of the more compelling podcasts on the creative landscape.

Welcome to episode #653 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #653 - Host: Mitch Joel. I had the please of hanging out with Alan Stein Jr. at a private meeting for professional speakers over the summer. I was super-impressed with his knowledge, capabilities and insights.

Welcome to episode #652 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #652 - Host: Mitch Joel. Innovation is a big word. It's a tough word and many businesses claim to be doing it... but few can demonstrate it (well).

Welcome to episode #651 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #651 - Host: Mitch Joel. Two of my close friends from the marketing world are Christopher S. Penn and John Wall. Some know them as the dynamic duo that host the Marketing Over Coffee Podcast (and it’s a glorious one). We’ve been friends for close to 15 years (from the early days of podcasting at the first-ever PodCamp). What some may not know, is that the two of them plus Katie Robbert have a great company called, Trust Insights. The company’s big goal is to help brands light up their dark data. They live to build both predictive insights and push analytics to create better outcomes. Katie and I met at HubSpot’s massive Inbound conference this past year, where she presented on the topic of predictive analytics. This is the kind of rich brand goodness that is no longer relegated to big companies with massive budgets. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 53:49. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Welcome to episode #650 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #650 - Host: Mitch Joel. When I got my first opportunity to speak in front of a large audience, I wasn't sure where to turn for more professional public speaking and presentation skills training. Many names of individuals and organizations were thrown my way, but one name that kept rising to the top was Nick Morgan. I immediately purchased his book, Give Your Speech, Change The World, and it did - in fact - change my world and perception of what a presentation is really all about. Then came Working The Room followed by Trust Me and then Power Cues. I eagerly bought and devoured them all. Thankfully, Nick jumped into social media and started blogging over at Public Words. Now, Nick is back with a new book, Can You Hear Me? - How To Connect With People In A Virtual World. According to Nick: "We’re immersed in the digital world; in fact, we couldn’t live without our mobile phones, computers, and social apps that allow us to work and play in ways unimaginable even two decades ago. But the blurring of the virtual and the real has a hidden cost that we pay every day. The technology strips ordinary human emotional understanding out of our communications, and we are the poorer for it.” Take a listen to better understand how we can fix it. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #649 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #649 - Host: Mitch Joel. What's the move that you make after you graduate from business school? Many take a job and figure out if that path is for them, or if they need to strike out on their own. Chris Bailey got several job offers, but turned them all down. He had a different plan. For one year, he devoured everything on the subject of productivity. At the end of every day, he would write. This lead to his blog, A Year of Productivity. That was just the beginning. From there, he started to interview productivity experts from around the world, dug into deep academic and scientific research, and has conducted countless experiments on himself. A true guinea pig for productivity, Chris wants to become the most productive as humanly possible. After that, he wrote his first book, The Productivity Project. Now, he's back with his recently published sophomore business book effort, Hyperfocus - How to Be More Productive in a World of Distraction. Want to be more productive? Want to know what it really takes (and how to really think about it)? This might be the show for you. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 52:01. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Welcome to episode #646 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #646 - Host: Mitch Joel. It's a pretty amazing life. Karen Wickre has been involved in the communications space for a very long time. She's based in Silicon Valley, sits on many boards and has even been written about quite a few times (check out Chip Conley's latest book, Wisdom @ Work for more about her abilities to be an executive whisperer and EQ guide). A veteran editor, curator, content strategist and connector of people and ideas, Karen is super-passionate about all forms of communication. She really has done it all from writing one of the very first consumer books about the Web (in 1995!) to working in content strategy for Sapient. With that, she is best known for being an integral part of Google's communications and public affairs, before moving on to become the Editorial Director at Twitter. Now, she is out on her own and has published her latest book, Taking the Work Out of Networking - An Introvert's Guide to Making Connections That Count. It's an excellent read for those who want to think differently about making connections that really count, and add value in their life by building out a strong community.

Dan had a real fire in his belly. What a wild and successful ride he has been on. He is the bestselling author of Promote Yourself and Me 2.0. He's a Partner and Research Director at Future Workplace, and the Founder of both Millennial Branding and WorkplaceTrends.com.

Welcome to episode #644 of Six Pixels of Separation.  I'm a big fan of the Thinkers50. It's a list of smart people who are (and have) made a significant difference in how we think about business and the work that we do today. Many of the past guests on Six Pixels of Separation are on the list. Dan Pontefract was kind enough to introduce me to one of the Thinkers50 co-founders, Stuart Crainer. Stuart is the former editor of London Business School’s award-winning magazine Business Strategy Review. His book credits include The Management Century and a biography of the management guru Tom Peters (Tom is a personal favourite "thinker" of mine!).

Stuart is a Visiting Professor at Warwick Business School. He is also the author of Atlantic Crossing, based on his experiences sailing the Atlantic. So, who are some of the best thinkers of the day?

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #643 - Host: Mitch Joel. I'm just a superfan nerd for all things Susan David. I thought that her 2016 book, Emotional Agility, was one of the smartest (and most relevant) books for individuals and leaders. I had the pleasure of connecting with Susan and becoming friends in the past short while. If you didn't know, Susan is an award-winning Psychologist on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, co-founder and co-director of the Institute of Coaching at McLean Hospital, and CEO of Evidence Based Psychology. Emotional Agility is a concept that Harvard Business Review heralded as a Management Idea of the Year (no joke), and has been featured... well... everywhere! An in-demand speaker, advisor, and coach, Susan has worked with the senior leadership of hundreds of major organizations, including the United Nations, Ernst & Young, and the World Economic Forum. Susan is also on the core faculty of the global program Homeward Bound, which culminates in an all-women expedition to Antarctica and is being filmed as a documentary. The program aims at increasing the influence and impact of women in the sciences. You should also check out her TED Talk, The gift and power of emotional courage (close to four million views!). I'm thrilled that she agreed to do this. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 49:15. Hello from beautiful Montreal. Subscribe over at iTunes.

Welcome to episode #642 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #642 - Host: Mitch Joel. Chalk this conversation up to the well-worn thought: "how is is that we had never connected before?" I have been a fan of Allen Adamson's work. His books, BrandSimple and BrandDigital were awesome (I still have not read The Edge - 50 Tips from Brands That Lead). Allen is a respected branding expert. He has worked with a broad spectrum of consumer and corporate businesses across a myriad of industries. He is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Metaforce, a marketing and product consultancy. How organizations do – or do not - stay relevant is the subject of Allen’s most recent book, Shift Ahead (co-authored with Joel Steckel). Using first-hand accounts and case studies, Shift Ahead explains how the best organizations recognize when it’s time to change direction, and how they pull it off while building their brands.

Welcome to episode #641 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #641 - Host: Mitch Joel. I’m a moron. I did not put two and two together. My buddy, Scott Stratten, let me know that a new book called, Planet Funny, had recently been published. I’m all-in on any non-fiction book that can bridge comedy, culture and things like that. Too many business professionals discount the value and merits of comedy in business, and how massive of a communications skill that comedy is (in short: study comedy if you want to get better at positioning, storytelling, communications skills, etc…). Plus, let’s face it, funny equals happy… and we can never have enough of that! The author of the book, Planet Funny, has written over a dozen other books like (Brainiac, Maphead, Because I Said So! and many more). He also happens to be the winningest contestant ever on the age show Jeopardy! (And even lost to IBM Watson’s artificial intelligence). That’s Ken Jennings. So, yes, we discuss the impact of what he calls “peak comedy,” but we also chat about his appearance on Jeopardy! and many other topics (as you can imagine, Ken is smaaaart). So, does your business need more funny? Yes… yes it does… and there’s never been a better time to make that happen than right now. Enjoy the conversation...  Running time: 52:18.

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #639 - Host: Mitch Joel. I've had the pleasure of knowing Dan Pontefract for some time.

Welcome to episode #635 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #635 - Host: Mitch Joel. I've been following the work of Tim Grahl for many years. If you've written a business book, and then had to do the hard work of marketing and selling it, Tim is the person to know. For over ten years, he has helped amazing authors like Daniel H. Pink, Barbara Corcoran, Hugh MacLeod, Chip and Dan Heath, and many more get their books noticed with his company, Book Launch. He even wrote the amazing books, Your First 1000 Copies and Book Launch Blueprint. But life was not always rosy for Tim. While his business was succeeding, his marriage teetered towards divorce, he suffered from anxiety attacks and a personality disorder, and had the IRS subpoena him. With a new book of his own, Running Down A Dream, he hopes that his story and work will inspire others to pursue their dreams. This is a show about dreams, and how to turn them into something real.

Welcome to episode #629 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #629 - Host: Mitch Joel. Everybody is curious about creativity and the creative process. Are some people just more creative than others? Is there a true difference between those who use the left and right parts of their brain? Can creativity be learned and turned into a business process? Allen Gannett is the founder and CEO of TrackMaven, a marketing insights platform whose clients have included Microsoft, Marriott, Saks Fifth Avenue, GE and more. He has been on the "30 Under 30" lists for both Inc. and Forbes. He is a contributor for Fast Company where he writes on the intersection of technology and human nature. Previously, he was a co-founder and General Partner of Acceleprise Ventures, the leading SaaS startup accelerator. He was also once a very pitiful runner-up on Wheel of Fortune. Now, he's an author.

Welcome to episode #628 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #628 - Host: Mitch Joel. He's had many exits as a startup founder (over five!). This includes two IPOs, two trade sales and more. He's been in the technology and services space for a long while (and he's seen it all). Maybe you have heard of some of his companies... but maybe you haven't. Rajat Bhargava doesn't care that much, because he likes to build companies (not, necessarily, sexy big brand name companies). It's hard to have a beautiful house without plumbing... the saying goes. This graduate of MIT (with a degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science) isn't just a successful entrepreneur, but he's also an investor. With over twenty years of experience (he's currently the CEO of JumpCloud), Rajat and his business partner, Will Herman, decided to distill their knowledge, wisdom and mentoring startegies into a book. The Startup Playbook is a great read from these two business veterans. If you're in a startup, thinking of launching one, or if you're trying to get your bigger company to think like a startup, this book is for you. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 50:37.

Welcome to episode #627 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #627 - Host: Mitch Joel. A strong brand and corporate name is critical to demonstrating your uniqueness in the marketplace. The competitive forces are at play. Many people believe that all of the good names are already taken. The problem, of course, is that even if you can secure a strong and original brand identity, getting the right domain name can be costly, time consuming and extremely frustrating. Thankfully, there are smart people like Bill Sweetman who love the domain game. I've been fortunate to know Bill for over a decade. He's a former digital agency professional (who was in the space almost twenty years ago), before switching to his true passion: domain names. His company is called, Name Ninja. He is focused solely on helping individuals and brands get the domain names that are best for them. He is a very successful and respected domain name industry business leader with extensive experience in the domain aftermarket (or secondary market) of premium domain names, including domain pricing, distribution, and sales. A self-confessed domain name fanatic, Bill registered his very first domain in 1994 (which he later sold) and has been perfecting his "Domain Karate" moves ever since. If you've ever wondered how the domain business has become so wild and hard to navigate, you do not want to miss this. Enjoy the conversation...  Running time: 57:58. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Welcome to episode #626 of Six Pixels of Separation.  Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - Episode #626 - Host: Mitch Joel. It's hard not to be a fan of the work that Daniel Pink does. He is the author of six provocative books (Free Agent Nation, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko, A Whole New Mind, Drive, To Sell Is Human and his newest, When - The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing). His books have won multiple awards and have been translated into 37 languages. That's just the beginning of how his thinking has permeated into the work culture. He's usually spotting trends and ways to think differently about how we live and work, long before it becomes a household name or a growing trend. From television shows to magazine articles, Dan works tirelessly to figure out how to make his own life more efficient, and - in doing so - he shares his findings with all of us. When is a brilliant, compelling and fun book to read. Think about when you do your work. How do you choose when to do it? Gut? Instinct? When someone books you in a meeting? These are terrible ways to make your days as efficient as possible, according to Dan. It turns out that when you do stuff is as powerful as what you do. Don't believe me? Listen in.

That's when Jonah Sachs rose to prominence. He created some of the world's first viral videos. His agency, Free Range Studios, created campaigns, like Amnesty International's awareness-raising video on blood diamonds (which was seen by 20 million people). Later Jonah helped to create The Story of Stuff, which was viewed by over 60 million people and marked a turning point in the fight to educate people about the environmental and social impact of consumer goods. Jonah went onto to create other viral campaigns for Greenpeace, Human Rights Campaigns and the ACLU, as well as consumer brands like Microsoft and Patagonia. Fast Company named him one of today's 50 most influential social innovators. In 2012, Jonah released his first book, Winning the Story Wars.

Welcome to episode #619 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #619 - Host: Mitch Joel. In business you have to understand your customers... and your audience. We often talk about the power of getting better at communicating. This is true. Still, one of the largest parts of communications is usually an arena that few business professionals spend any amount of time understanding: body language and unspoken cues. These, usually, are the difference between winning that pitch (and retaining that customer)... or not. Whether it's online, in person or just consuming his content, I always enjoy the time I spend with Mark Bowden. He's perfectly engaging, entertaining and there's always something to learn. There is this powerful notion that success comes not from what we say, but what we do and how we say it. This power of communications is powerful. Few people truly have the expertise of Mark Bowden. He has developed cutting-edge techniques to stand out, win trust and grow profits through the power of communication. Some would call him a body language expert. I believe he is much more than that. He runs a company called Truthplane. He's written the bestselling business books Winning Body Language, Winning Body Language for Sales Professionals and Tame the Primitive Brain. Mark is also the co-creator of online course, Presentation Genius. Mark has a highly viewed TEDx talk and his YouTube Channel has over 3 million views. His latest book, Truth & Lies - What People Are Really Thinking (which is co-authored by Tracey Thomson) is incredible. Enjoy the conversation...  Running time: 59:59. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Welcome to episode #618 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #618 - Host: Mitch Joel. I first met Bonnie Siegler abut a decade ago. We were both new to the TED community and would (randomly) run into each other. I knew she was a graphic designer and led a creative studio, but I had no idea just how respected and regarded she was in the design world. Over the years she has become one of the most respected graphic designers in the world. Bonnie is the founder of Eight and a Half. Her impressive clients include The New Yorker, Late Night with Seth Meyers, HBO, The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and many more. Prior to Eight and a Half, Bonnie co-founded the design studio Number 17, and their clients included Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock, Sex and the City, Foreign Affairs Magazine and more. While at Number 17, Bonnie also served as Creative Director of Newsweek after overseeing its complete redesign. Bonnie is now the author of two books: Dear Client (which is a guide for people who work with creatives) and Signs of Resistance (which is a visual history of protest in America). Bonnie was voted one of the 50 most influential designers working today by Graphic Design USA and was a featured designer in the Art Director Club's Legacy Project.

Welcome to episode #617 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #617 - Host: Mitch Joel. I just love everything that this human being puts out into the world. His latest book, Friend of a Friend, is a fascinating read about how we can get the most out of our networks and relationships (and, no, it's not about social media!). David Burkus is a best-selling author, a sought after speaker, and associate professor of leadership and innovation at Oral Roberts University. He's delivered keynotes to the leaders of Fortune 500 companies and the future leaders of the United States Naval Academy. His TED talk, Why you should know how much your coworkers get paid, has been viewed close to two million times, and he is a regular contributor to Harvard Business Review. He's written three books: The Myths of Creativity, Under New Management and now Friend of a Friend. This new book is surprising in nature. It's a fresh perspective on how to grow your network and build key connections -- one based on the science of human behavior, not rote networking advice that worked for one individual over the course of their career. So, is there science behind how people connect and grow their wealth? Listen in. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 56:32. Hello from beautiful Montreal. Subscribe over at iTunes.

Welcome to episode #615 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #615 - Host: Mitch Joel. If you're going to write and publish a book called, Brands and Bulls**t - Excel at the Former, Avoid the Latter. A Branding Primer for Millennial Marketers in a Digital Age, it's bound to get my attention. Bernie Schroeder was born in Austria, but is currently the director at the Lavin Entrepreneurship Center where he teaches entrepreneurship courses at San Diego State University. Bernie is a dreamer and a doer. His career involved being a professional marketer that led to the building of an agency called, CKS| Partners. This was one of the first integrated marketing agencies with more than 25 offices and 2,500 employees. He became a brand expert and helped to launch brands like Yahoo! and Amazon. Back in 2015, he published his first book, Fail Fast or Win Big. His second book, Simply Brilliant, came out in 2016. And now, he's back to call BS on brands... and much more. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 51:39. Hello from beautiful Montreal. Subscribe over at iTunes.

Welcome to episode #614 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #614 - Host: Mitch Joel. There are so many books on how to generate leads, close the sale, negotiate the sale, market the products and services and on and on. How many books have you read (or seen) about how to not lose the customer once you get them? You might think that once you have a customer, that you have them for life. Not even close. Joey Coleman has a unique ability. He is laser focused on how brands need to think once they have closed the sale. It's not just an ideology, either. It's a system. His latest book, Never Lose A Customer Again - Turn Any Sale Into Lifelong Loyalty in 100 Days is rocketing up the charts of every bestseller list... and for good reason. For over a decade, Joey has helped organizations retain their best customers and turn them into raving fans via his entertaining and actionable keynotes, workshops, and consulting projects. He has a long history of energizing and motivating audiences to enhance their customers' experiences. He is an award-winning speaker, and now he has packed that insight into a very important book.

Welcome to episode #613 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #613 - Host: Mitch Joel. There is only one Tom Peters. He's a legend. Literally. For anyone in business, Tom Peters is the gold standard. From his countless bestsellers (In Search of Excellence, Re-Imagine, and on and on) to his incredible public presentations. He's a personal mentor to me (whether he wants to admit it or not) and I can best define him as a "cranky optimist." Tom is back with a brilliant new book (seriously, drop everything and go out and get it) called, The Excellence Dividend - Meeting The Tech Tech With Work That Wows And Jobs. Tom spent a significant amount of his earlier years in California, mainly Silicon Valley (where he was on a list of "100 most powerful people in Silicon Valley"), from 1965-2000. Tom is a civil engineering graduate of Cornell, where he was included in the book The 100 Most Notable Cornellians, and he earned an MBA and a Ph.D. in business at Stanford. He holds multiple honorary doctorates as well and has been honored by dozens of associations in content areas such as management, leadership, quality, human resources, customer service, innovation, marketing, and design. He was in the U.S. Navy from 1966-1970, where he made two deployments to Vietnam (as a combat engineer in the fabled Navy Seabees) and "survived a tour in the Pentagon." He was a White House/OMB drug-abuse advisor in 1973-1974, and then he worked at McKinsey & Co. from 1974-1981, becoming a partner in 1979. He also co-founded McKinsey's now gargantuan Organization Effectiveness practice. In 1981, Tom founded Skunkworks Inc. and The Tom Peters Company. As for his book? Just take a look here. After his many (many) years dealing and consulting with the top brands and business leaders in the world, his latest book, The Excellence Dividend is truly of the moment. From Tom's perch, there is perspective, insight and power that every person in business must pay attention to (and learn from). Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 57:26.

Welcome to episode #612 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast.  Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #612 - Host: Mitch Joel. Have you ever met someone, and you just connect? On everything. From the music you like to how you think about work... and family... and beyond. That's how it has been as Laura Gassner Otting and I have become friends in the past few years. Laura helps innovators, idealists, and iconoclasts get unstuck and achieve their best results. It's not just your standard motivation stuff... far from it. Through her business, Limitless Possibility, Laura collaborates with entrepreneurs and investors to push past the doubt and indecision that consign great ideas to limbo. She delivers strategic thinking, well-honed wisdom, and perspective informed by decades of navigating change across the start-up, nonprofit, political, and philanthropic landscapes. Laura served as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton's White House, helping shape AmeriCorps. She left a leadership role at respected nonprofit search firm, Isaacson, Miller, to expand the startup ExecSearches.com and founded and ran the Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group, which partnered with the full gamut of mission driven nonprofit executives - from start-up dreamers to scaling social entrepreneurs to global philanthropists. She is the author of Mission-Driven, a book for those moving from profit to purpose. She's an instigator, a motivator, a provocateur and someone you should pay attention to. Enjoy the conversation...
