See you at the Ranch, Dude.

Did a quick interview with Catalyst Ranch today in advance  of my Dec. 1st Match Books session.  Here’s how I pitched the event to my colleagues, friends, and family…

If you’ve never been to Catalyst Ranch, it’s quite the unique venue filled with all the accoutrements to satisfy your ADD. Think play-dough and pipe cleaners… ok, stop thinking about them and get back to my email!

During this session (which will only go 60-90 minutes, leaving the rest for socializing), I’ll be toggling between white-board exercises, powerpoint (no more than 7 words per slide, promise!) and rapping.

As you know, I’m not one for over-hyping (hah!) but I’m fixin’ to outdo the 2 minute rap I threw down at SES Chicago a few weeks ago.

Counting on audience participation throughout so bring your energy, ideas, and beat-boxes. :)

Here are the nitty-gritty deets. See the email below for the full pitch. And feel free to invite others.
