A new book by Bob Beaudine is out and it is called the Power of Who.
The premise, as the reviews I have read state it, is that we all know a lot of people in our daily lives. These people are prepared and willing to assist us in attaining our goals if we only ask them to do so. This observation Beaudine makes in distinction from "networking" where strangers meet each other often without a clue as to what each is seeking.
For our Legacy Consultants this is a powerful insight. The near universal appeal of the LifeStory preservation mission and the gorgeous LifeStory products we produce is such that each of us has a nearly universal well of human resources to tap - yet how many of us do? Fear of being "pushy" or "salesy" will sometimes cause us to down play our passion. The result is a story not capture and a memory not saved. Real people pay the price for our inactivity.
If each of us knows 200 or more people - think of the power of spreading the word at almost every encounter?
