If you haven’t noticed, Kevin Carroll is blogging.
How’s that for asking and receiving?
If you’re not familiar with Kevin, he’s the author of Rules of the Red Rubber Ball. It’s a great book which Kevin appropriately dubs “the little brother to Orbiting the Giant Hairball.” Kevin also founded the Katalyst Consultancy after a varied and impressive career, including a stint at Nike.
Before being blown away by Kevin’s book, I was blown away by his presentations. According to John Moore at Brand Autopsy, the presentations are nowhere to be found online. It may have been a bandwidth issue, since they were fairly large files.
If I discover a way to link to these presentations, I will let you know. Viewing them online is life-changing… let alone experiencing it in person.
Following in line with his book (Rules of the Red Rubber Ball), a recent post by Kevin asks Can a Ball REALLY Change the World?! The efforts of ninemillion.org align so well with Kevin’s message that I feel like this gives you a good idea of his passion in life.
So, can a blog REALLY change the world? In The Radical Edge, Steve Farber describes changing the world as changing it for people individually. I think that is what Kevin does. I’m sure he has changed the world of kids across the globe. I believe that through interacting with him personally, through a presentation, through his blog or through his book… he will help change your world as well.
Thanks for letting us know Kevin is blogging. I LOVE his book, and have heard from others his presentations are amazing. I’ll be subscribing to his RSS feed right away.
And yes, one person can change the world, for one person…at a time, and then they can change one more…and so it goes.
Keep changing the world Dustin!
Ditto what Phil said! RRB is one of my favorites–I put it in the same…um…gravitational field as Orbiting the Giant Hairball. I’m going to check out his blog right away (and I’m glad to have found yours, Dustin.)
I came accross this message..I was lucky enought to hear Kevin speak at a Kaboom (Kaboom.org) in Chicage..and let me tell you first hand..he is everything you read about and more. I laughed, I cried..I went home read the book to my kids..outstanding is an understament!
