On a Mission to make you Remarkable

With Legend Guy Kawasaki



Guy Kawasaki is an award-winning author, accomplished evangelist and world-renowned speaker. He did not invent secular evangelism, but he popularized it. This goes back to 1983 and his work with the Macintosh division of Apple. He is the author of fifteen books used in some of the finest academic institutions in the world and have been both New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellers.

Guy is on a mission to help us be remarkable and enchanting. In our conversation, he shares tactical and practical tips for how to accomplish this. Take a listen and hear about how the power of the Duchenne smile and a firm handshake. Guy shares his philosophy on how evangelists are made, not born. It is quite a ride, so buckle up and take a listen.

"You have to trust the dots. Going forward, you cannot pin how to connect the dots. It’s only looking backward that you can connect the dots. You have to trust that somehow the dots will connect." Guy Kawasaki
