Leo & Randy On Books (writing and publishing)

Leo Bottary has written three books including The Power Of Peers, What Anyone Can Do, and Peernovation. That last one is in the process of being published. Today, we talk a bit about accountability and writing/publishing books. During the conversation, we mention three authors who have been on the podcast in the past.

Larry Robertson is an innovation advisor – a rare combination of many parts that quilt together into a greater whole. He’s the author of two award-winning books – The Language of Man. Learning to Speak Creativity and A Deliberate Pause: Entrepreneurship and its Moment in Human Progress. He’s also the founder of two ventures: Lighthouse Consulting, a firm that for 25 years has guided entrepreneurs and leaders, and a non-profit focused on creativity. These things and more make him a widely sought after expert in the areas creativity, entrepreneurship, and leadership. Larry joined our podcast to discuss creativity.

Francis Cholle is an international business consultant, best-selling author, and engaging speaker. Francis is the CEO/Founder of The Human Company where he helps companies rethink business in ways that conventional strategic management cannot. His clients are major, mid-size, emerging firms, including global powerhouses across a wide variety of industries such as beauty, luxury, pharmaceuticals, communications, media, and information technology. Francis also formed Squircle Academy. Here is his appearance on the Peernovation podcast.

Jeffrey Hayzlett is the primetime television host of C-Suite with Jeffrey Hayzlett and Executive Perspectives LIVE on C-Suite TV and is the host of the award-winning All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett on C-Suite Radio.  Hayzlett is a global business celebrity, Hall of Fame speaker, best-selling author, and Chairman of C-Suite Network, home of the world’s most trusted network of C-Suite leaders. Jeffrey joined us to talk about paying it forward, but it also appeared again to talk about his book, The Hero Factor.

Dan Hoffman On Why We Learn Best In Circles

After starting, growing, and selling a cloud-based technology company Dan and his family spent a few years in Spain learning what he wanted to do next. From that sabbatical came an idea focused on peer learning. Today, Dan leads Circl.es, a company featuring a platform that fosters deeper conversations to create enduring connections and learning.

Leo & Randy On Transition (Including Our Podcast)

Leo’s first book (a book co-authored with Vistage CEO, Leon Shapiro) was titled The Power Of Peers. After the publication, our podcasting adventures started with The Year Of The Peer, the first iteration where we interviewed over 50 high achievers who taught us that peers should likely be viewed through a wider lens. Every person is influenced by a variety of people who help us learn and grow. From those interviews, Leo was inspired to write his second book, What Anyone Can Do (a title inspired by running coach Joe Henderson who observed that what differentiates most successful people from the rest of us is not their raw talent; its that they consistently do what anyone can do, that most of us never will).

Our pursuit of learning and evangelizing the peer advantage continues. We passionately seek to learn more about how all of us can benefit by being more intentional and purposeful in making our circle of influence as useful as possible. It’s not just about our personal growth, but it’s also about our joint cooperation to serve one another so we can all grow and improve.

During this pandemic Leo was able to complete his third book, Peernovation: What Peer Groups Can Teach Us About Building High Performing Teams. Due to be published this fall, Leo narrowed the focus to our most passionate pursuit, helping people learn and leverage the truth that who you surround yourself with matters! We also tightened our focus in the podcast, too.

The work isn’t limited to books or this podcast, but it encompasses all of our work. Within the last year, Leo has launched a new company, Peernovation, LLC aimed at providing deeper insights and service to leaders, individuals, teams, and groups. Together, we’re taking a sharper aim as we follow our belief that together we can accomplish so much more, individually and together. Peernovation is a professional service provider helping leaders build and create more effective teams. Peernovation also serves individuals and organizations who want to achieve elevated personal and group performance.

Beginning next week, we’re rebranding the podcast as Peernovation. Our first guest is scheduled to be Craig Weber, author/speaker, and leader of The Weber Consulting Group. Craig authored Conversational Capacity and Influence In Action, books that provide valuable frameworks on how people can better engage in effective communication for improved performance.
