Monday Montage: Katalyst Roadshow
Life as the Katalyst offers many opportunities to speak before widely disparate groups and in wildly different climates. From the snow to the beach in one week?! No worries! In addition to my other speaking engagements, I’ve been on a Public Library Association (PLA) eight city tour - sponsored by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation - which has taken me to several parts of the Midwest and Northeast. The cold wintry photos here are from the PLA event in Bolton Landing, NY on April 10th; the next day, I was attending the Fontainebleau Resorts meeting in Miami.
One day I’m going to have to write in detail, about the gift of being exposed to such amazing cultural, geographic and even climatic diversity, meeting so many segments of humanity in transit, at work, creating, making change in the world, seeing such extremes of weather, topography. Stay tuned!
What’s your Red Rubber Ball?!
