Poke the Box!

March 1, 2011 by Toby Martini Leave a Comment

What would our world look like if more people started projects, made a ruckus, and took risks? — Seth Godin

Poke the BoxWhile it doesn’t exaclty say so, Seth Godin’s new book Poke the Box is pretty much about Improvisation.

Go get Poke the Box and enjoy the read. But more importantly, be more inventive, more innovative, take more risks!

All the good stuff in life happens when people try new things and reach farther than they thought they could.

Have fun! Make stuff up! Poke the Box!

Testimonials

Toby,

I just wanted to thank you for your presentation to my team. As the manager of a highly skilled group of engineers, I struggle every day with trying to get the members of my team to do a better job of interacting with both other departments and vendors. They’ve got great technical skills, but they struggle when it comes to networking.

Your presentation was just what they needed to hear. I’m not exactly sure how you did it, they must have heard this stuff before, but somehow you were able to get through to them. I know that they really enjoyed the Improv parts of your speech – everyone was laughing and that’s what they talked about after the event. Since you spoke, I’ve seen an amazing transformation in my team. They really seem to have heard what you said and on a daily basis I’m able to watch as they put it into action.

I can’t adequately express my deep appreciation for you taking the time to come talk to us. The information that you presented and how you shared it with us has made a lasting change in my team and I will forever be in your debt. I’m going to tell all of my peers about just how effective your message is and I’m sure that you will soon be getting a number of requests to come back and once again share your message with us!
