Do I Have To Be A Jerk To Succeed?

I have way too much experience in an increasingly “I’ll scratch your back if you’ll scratch mine” or “pay-to-play” marketplace. As a result, I don’t put much stock in awards.

But CICERO (the Emmys of speech writing) is a little different. It comes with credibility and a heavy weight panel of judges. 

So bear with me for a second. 

I share this with you because I take it as a legitimate sign of hope.

I hope you find it as encouraging as I do that a little talk — a plea for human kindness — has been viewed by nearly a quarter million people on YouTube…and recognized by CICERO.

If you’re inclined, catch the talk here — and thanks for allowing me this personal note
