Seth Godin announced he is taking his Linchpin seminar on the road, coming to Minneapolis in August.

I have referenced Seth’s work before and give him partial credit for inspiring me to launch this blog and pursue development of 2MinuteGenius. As part of that effort, I recut the audio from an interview he gave a while back on music and tribes to serve as the voiceover for an animation featuring kinetic typography. Give it a listen…

Needless to say, the man has a lot of ideas and he can riff and freestyle about marketing, promotion and leadership for hours on end. Accordingly, the event in August is to be unscripted and highly interactive with an afternoon session dedicated to Q&A.

Thanks to a generous donation by my spouse (who is a truly indispensable linchpin herself), I will have the opportunity to experience it all while gathering ideas, collecting wisdom and networking with others.

It should make for a memorable day.
