Maybe we are starting to get through...to some anyway
An email I received yesterday - that I thought worthy to share as a smile came across my face as I read it....
Excerpt:
"They took me through 4.5 hours of interviews with 9 people and ended it with me giving them a presentation. I dutifully had printed out 9 copies of riveting PowerPoint to aid me in my spiel but when I went to get them out the CEO started laughing noticeably. They had apparently just had a training session / meeting on doing meetings without PowerPoint :) I promptly shoved the copies back in my folder, proceeded to drop your name and book and let them know you were available for corporate events. I then proceeded to lead a "discussion" for the next 30 minutes."
I'm sorry the CEO noticeably laughed, but glad he knew of the book and their organization had made some change in the engagement factor of their meetings.
Thank you for sharing "interviewee."
