laurieb755 's review for:
I gave my copy to Candy A for her birthday and bought another copy to include with the books sent to Jamie in Brussels. This book is packed with motivation – how to turn lemons into helicopters (why not!) I may not be an entrepreneur but that's not necessary to benefit from Tina's (almost) unbridled enthusiasm for looking at the world and seeing opportunity in problems to be solved.
She wrote this book for her son, as he was turning 20 she wanted to share with him her knowledge and what she's learned in her life and career. She is currently at Stanford's eCorner – their entrepreneurial school that serves as a focal point for their various schools – business, engineering medical – to share, trade, build, innovate.
She is also a neuroscientist and (obviously!) author. I had viewed some videos of her talks online and that convinced me to buy this book. It was an easy and quick read. It was also a positive motivator, especially as I was heading off on a job interview. She encourages thinking outside the box – in fact, its the box altogether.
UPDATE: I have a Tina Seelig anecdote to share. Years ago, when I was attending conferences for NY State independent school technology teachers, I contacted Tina to see if she would consider speaking at our conference. For a fee of $15,000 she would be able to join us. That price was way, way beyond the conference organizers' budget. Not too long afterwards she was the keynote speaker at the national association of independent school (NAIS) teachers conference held in California.
