In his speech, he laid out a few rules for life and told story after story from his coaching career. While it largely focused on coaching...

an entrepreneur's reading list
I like to read as much as I can. It’s not as much as I’d like, so when I do, I want to read something great. My pal @JoeYevoli is also an avid reader, and we share a lot of books back and forth, particularly about business.

What Israel can teach us about security
Such simple changes that make a real difference…
“First, it’s fast – there’s almost no line. That’s because they’re not looking for liquids, they’re not looking at your shoes. They’re not looking for everything they look for in North America. They just look at you,” said Sela. “Even today with the heightened security in North America,...
