I would like to be known as Bern's Buddy and
a partner in LeadNow, a management consulting firm specializing in Leadership
System Development for enterprises wishing to achieve their next level
of performance.
As for fun, I think I have more of that than
I recognize.
Doc Searls is a writer, marketing consultant and former funny guy on
the radio. He and his wife Joyce have four children, not including themselves,
but including two girls and two boys that range from 29 to 2. This in
itself accounts for no small sum of fun.
Tobin Quereau is a faculty member at Austin Community College in Austin,
Texas, a counselor, and a father of a fantastic fifteen year-old daughter.
He is taking lessons from her daily and hopes to graduate with an advanced
degree in growing young sometime in the next decade or two.
