Summary
The CEO's Time Machine - Geoff Thatcher & Zoe Thatcher
The Not Old Better Show, Author Interview Series
Welcome to The Not Old Better Show. I'm Paul Vogelzang, and this is episode #453. Today's episode is brought to you by Lightstream.
As part of our Art of Living, author interview series, today's show is a very special one. Our guests are father, daughter author team, Geoff Thatcher and Zoe Thatcher. Geoff Thatcher and Zoe Thatcher have co-written the new book, THE CEO'S TIME MACHINE. THE CEO'S TIME MACHINE will transform how you view leadership and innovation.
The title says it all…wouldn't it be great to have a time machine in business, and in our lives? It is impossible to predict the future of innovation and business success—but what if you had a time machine? Where would you take it? Does going to the future provide you with answers? Are you missing the obvious in the present? What can be learned from the past? For CEO's for all of us, there are problems that come from trying to see the future, but, there's a test for that…
That was Geoff Thatcher and Zoe Thatcher reading from THE CEO'S TIME MACHINE.
Zoe Thatcher did all the art, and when you buy the book, which I encourage you to do, check out page 55, and the accompanying artwork, which beautifully depicts the giggle test."
And, that was Zoe Thatcher. You've got to see her artwork, which we'll add an image of to the site. As I say, you'll love this book, and it's great for all audiences and all families.
Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better show via internet phone, Geoff Thatcher, and Zoe Thatcher.
