It was a summer of writing and book projects for me. I’ve already pre-announed one of those books, Successful Innovation Outcomes in Law: A Practical Guide for Law Firms, Law Departments and other Legal Organizations.
Allison Shields and I have also finished a new book on LinkedIn. It will be called “Make LinkedIn
Some of my friends have convinced me that, because the manuscript is finished and with the book designer and the cover design has been chosen, it’s time that I announce the upcoming publication of my new book on innovation in law. I tend to be cautious about announcing things, so I’m just “pre-announcing” now.

Everyone working in the innovation field, especially in law, gets stuck from time to time. When you do, you need a guide to help you with some tips, nudges, and insights to get you moving

Last year, I read 115 books, exceeding my goal by quite a bit. Or, more accurately, I listed 115 books that I read. I don’t list books that might reveal certain things I might (or might not) be working on.

Autonomous, Annalee Newitz
The Hard Thing About Hard Things, Ben Horowitz

For All the Tea in China, Sarah Rose
Gridiron Genius, Mike Lombardi
Creative Strategy, William Duggan
Building a Story Brand, Donald Miller
The Dan Sullivan Question, Dan Sullivan
