WHY I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS BOOK & THE COURSE:
This book and the course are so relevant to us entrepreneurs at this time of global pandemic crisis that has expanded even more our awareness of the much-needed solutions for so many urgent humanitarian challenges. We, entrepreneurs, I believe have the duty and responsibility to apply our entrepreneurial mindset and innovative imaginations to pave the path for a better tomorrow. And Novogratz has the voice and skills to empower us to care more and act more.
JOIN US EITHER WAY:
Once again, the book is more a springboard for us to launch our conversation and connect. If you were unable to find time to finish the book or tackle the reading at all, no worries, just do some Googling; you should be able to find enough information to join in on the beginning of the conversation. And then from there, we will go into whatever direction the subject takes us. The key here is to have FUN and share ideas!
OTHER NON-RULES:
DRINKS: Whatever you like. (10 am maybe too early for alcoholic drinks, but no one will judge.)
SNACKS: It's good manners to share, but not required.
ATTIRE: Dress to impress (Upper body anyway)
READING: Don't worry if you were unable to finish the book or haven't even gotten started(!!), join us anyway. But do some research online about the author and her story so you can participate in the conversation.
WHERE TO PICK UP A COPY OF THE BOOK:
Your local digital public library, Amazon Kindle, Kobo, Amazon Audible. If you are interested in enrolling in the 11-week course, I will recommend picking up a Kindle or hardcover from Amazon. But remember that you need to get the book before May 26!!! You will need the receipt to prove that!
READING TIME:
Around 5 to 6 hours. That's less than 20 minutes a day! YOU CAN DO IT!
I look forward to conversing with you virtually!!
Cheers,
Jonathan
