Liquid Leadership -- From Woodstock to Wikipedia




Over the past 15 years, Brad observed a startling change in corporate America. The latest generation of workers have grown up immersed in new technologies, such as laptops, iPhones, texting, social networks and augmented reality.

This 24/7 connected, early adopter to anything technology driven has created a whole new divide, in which more and more young people are growing up as Digital Natives - comfortable using technology as their primary resource to do business - while the established older generation of Baby Boomers are using technology as their secondary resource.

Unbeknown to most, companies such as Kodak now derive 50% of their current revenue from technology that did not exist 5 years ago...technology invented by Gen Y. Brad Szollose is passionate about helping people understand the changes that are taking place right now in the 21st Century.

He is the author of LIQUID LEADERSHIP: From Woodstock to Wikipedia--Multigenerational Management Ideas That Are Changing the Way We Run Things. Make sure to visit his website at www.LiquidLeadership.com.

Publishing a book can boost credibility and profits



I had the opportunity to interview Dawn Rivers Baker on Tuesday, January 11th at 8:30pm EDT on the GBN Talk Radio podcast.

Oh - first a little background on Dawn...

ABOUT DAWN RIVERS BAKER

Dawn Rivers Baker is the owner of Wahmpreneur Publishing, Inc. The company is a privately held, woman-owned subchapter-S micro-corporation headquartered in Sidney, New York. Wahmpreneur Books, the division that we'll be discussing in this podcast, is a division of Wahmpreneur Publishing, Inc.

Why publish a book? One of the keys to establishing yourself as an expert in your field is becoming a published author. Your name on the cover of an authoritative, well-produced book gives you instant cache and can lead to more speaking engagements, media appearances, and paying clients.

I did my usual due diligence on my podcast guests and what really impressed me about Dawn and her company is that she was well-recommended by Mark Levine in his book The Fine Print of Self-Publishing. Mark is like the Zagat Survey or the JD Power of the self-publishing industry.

Dawn dropped a lot of gems in this podcast. If you're a micro business owner, a freelancer, or an independent contractor, you'll find this podcast full of the "good stuff."
