How many people do you know that have built 10 businesses in seven industries across four continents?

In the very first episode of Inflection Point, we feature trailblazer and corporate titan, Chuck Blakeman. Chuck is a successful entrepreneur, Tedx speaker, and best-selling author who serves as a world-renowned business advisor through his company, Crankset Group. But, he is not just another run-of-the-mill organizational leader. He puts an interesting spin on how the workplace should look in the 21st century. As a visionary to Fortune 5000s and small businesses, his growing clientele spans the likes of Apple and Tyco Healthcare. His progressive mentorship and peer advisory services have also earned him a coveted spot as a featured contributor to Inc. Magazine.

Key takeaways:

  • Learn why businesses need a 2.0 re-boot or else get left behind...by their employees.
  • Discover how the word “participation” is all the buzz in business – not as a trend, but as a mainstay for mass industry success.
  • Soak up insight on why management is a fundamentally flawed concept.
  • Adopt a “make meaning, not just money” mindset to transform your entire workforce...and everyday life.
  • Channel the bigger “why” around life and work, and gain real traction through “risk taking” in business. Hint: it’s not the numbers that matter, it’s something else entirely.
  • Tune in and turn the volume up for a dose of inspiration and life lessons.  That’s how we Live Lead and Play!
