THE Seth Godin was (our) speaker at last week’s CreativeMornings/NewYork, generously hosted by The New School.
In his talk, Seth challenges our perception of work. He talks about how people who take responsibility are often given responsibility and how these days, we all carry media companies in our pockets.
Trust me, watching this talk is 20 minutes well spent. You can also watch the Q&A following his talk here.Having Seth as a speaker was nothing short of a true honor. I am so grateful. You too? Let’s tell him.
A big thank you to Ben Hallman for filming and editing.
As Rex Williams says :
Great speech + great video production = powerful impact
Thanks my friend for sharing this.

Bringing people together is pretty easy, but building working relationships and solidifying an organization with shared purpose is a challenge.
Frog Design put this free downloadable resource together to help make that work less of a struggle.

The Collective Action Toolkit (CAT) is a package of resources and activities that enable groups of people anywhere to organize, build trust, and collaboratively create solutions for problems impacting their community. The toolkit provides a dynamic framework that integrates knowledge and action to solve challenges. Designed to harness the benefits of group action and the power of open sharing, the activities draw on each participant’s strengths and perspectives as the group works to accomplish a common goal.
