John's expertise comes from working in the corporate arena and for nonprofits. Additionally, he is a journalist as well as a former Presidential Speechwriter for Bill Clinton, and he has spent more than a decade as a consultant for Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and public sector leaders.

Some of his written works include The Pun Also Rises, Cork Boat, The World on a String, and Shortcut: How Analogies Reveal Connections, Spark Innovation and Sell Our Greatest Ideas. Without further ado, John welcome to the show…
How to Use Analogies to Communicate Better and Persuade More People
