May 17, 2012 in Author of Book, Book Review, Coaching, General Business, Managment, New Thinking, Sustainability

I chat with Lisa Bodell regarding her first book that launched this week (May 15, 2012) and is already a must read for business people who want to help their company grow and prosper the right way.

Lisa’s passion for the subject makes for a great listen.
