On May 10, 2016, my next book, "The Purpose Effect: Building Meaning in Yourself, Your Role and Your Organization" is finally released. (pre-order here)
The book is roughly 72,000 words in length. Below is what it looks like as a word cloud. (A word cloud is an image composed of words used in a particular text or subject, in which the size of each word indicates its frequency or importance.)

Dan is a conference organizerโs ideal speaker. Not only did he inspire and energize our group, but he also masterfully adapted his content so it resonated with the audience and our conference theme. As a bonus, Dan is able to nimbly navigate to adjust to a reduced time slot when other speakers went over time without sacrificing the impact of his session.
