End Well Symposium – Dec 6; SF
LinkedIn.com, October 2018- One of my clients, Dr Shoshana Ungerleider, is focused on transforming how we end this life. End Well is a dynamic gathering of individuals, led by Dr Ungerleider, committed to generating human-centered, interdisciplinary innovation for the end of life experience.
We all have something to contribute to this vitally important movement — which affects us all and our loved ones. Join us as we re-imagine and co-create the end of life experience. Last year’s event was a sell-out, so I encourage you to register right away if this strikes a chord. This one day event takes place this year on Dec 6th in San Francisco.

Everyone Needs a Coach (The Secret Game Changer)
What do major athletes, tech innovators, actors, rock stars, and successful CEOs all have in common? Many if not most of them have a coach, mentor or trusted advisor in some form or fashion. I only recently learned that Bill Gates did a TED talk awhile back entitled “Everyone Needs a Coach” where he stressed that no matter who we are we can all benefit from having people around us to give us feedback, provide perspective, and help us reach our goals.

Dubbed an “innovator’s field trip”, it’s a gathering of some of the best and brightest minds in the world today — all hand-invited and curated from across multiple industries.

Both years, the settings have been beyond inspiring. …

Cool Technology Only Goes So Far: Laying the Course to Mass Adoption
LinkedIn.com, November, 2017 – You can have cutting-edge technology, the coolest company culture ever, and a great work ethic. But if you don’t have product-market fit, forget it.
So you have a shiny new product. The technology is amazing and groundbreaking. Obviously, it’s going to be the next big thing — or maybe not.
