Presenting...More Space

I've been living in "Almost There" mode since BlogHer. The book proposal is almost there. That project I'm working on is almost there. That article? You get the point.

So it's particularly gratifying to see one of my projects there! Introducing More Space: Nine Antidotes to Complacency in Business, written by moi and eight other co-conspirators, including Lisa Haneberg from Management Craft, Rob May from Businesspundit, Johnnie Moore from johnniemoore.com, Robert Paterson from PEI’s Future, Evelyn Rodriguez from Crossroad Dispatches, Curt Rosengren from Occupational Adventure, and Jeremy Wright from Ensight.org. We each take on a different aspect of business: Passion, Authenticity, Productivity, Change, Community, Simplicity, Innovation and Perspective, as they apply in the new business sphere. Office Life For Dummies this ain't.

I have to thank the brain and driving force behind this project, Todd Sattersten, and his wife, Amy. I don't know many other people who would say, "Hmmm, we're about to have our second child. Why don't we publish a book while we're at it?" More Space is their second baby this year.

Please check it out at 800CEOREAD, and stop into the blog to read about the book, the authors, and to download audiocasts of the chapters. Some freak read mine.

I have long awaited the completion of this project. Congrats to you, your co-conspirators and Todd & Amy. Can't wait to read it and listen to the audiocasts.

That was a beautiful piece - as written, *and* as spoken. Would I be right in hypothesising that Calvin was the friend you referred to in your introduction to the BlogHer panel, in conversation with whom you first realised that you needed to blog "naked"? He sounds like the kind of friend who would enable you to come to such a realisation - and I believe we all need such a friend.

Thank you for writing that, Jory.

Sounds like a reason to celebrate with CHOCOLATE!
