Who do you want to talk to? To listen to?

As part of the Find Your Great Work book, I’ve been doing a series of interviews called (unimaginatively enough) The Great Work Interview series.

Partially inspired by TED, I’ve been reaching out to cool and funky people who I think might have something interesting to say.

This week alone I’ve spoken to/will be speaking to

Barbara Coloroso, parenting expect

John McWade, founder of the very cool design magazine, Before + After

Andrew Kaufman, author of one of the best books ever, All My Friends Are Superheroes

Mark Dowds, a stunningly smart entreprenuer and founder of Brain Park

Scott Allen, expert on the power of social networking

Ed Cohen, head of learning for Satyam (one of the biggest companies you’ve never heard of)

Is that not amazing?  You can imagine the pleasure and learning I get from sitting down with these folks and asking them some questions.

And how did I get such an impressive roster of folk?  I asked them.

Who do YOU want to speak to?  And how will you get in touch with them to start that conversation?

  1. Three reasons why you should care about design (and five people to listen to this week)
  2. “It is what people talk about when we are gone…” (Great Work quote)
  3. Mojo meets Great Work – Michael and Marshall Goldsmith talk

    Michael,

    you seem to have accidently ended up with an extra http:// at the start of the “All My Friends Are Superheroes” link.

    (Thanks for the blog btw)
