Have You Seen ‘The Shark Tank’?
Like Tim Ferriss in his book The Four Hour Work Week, I think a little TV for relaxation is OK (24 anyone?).But every once in a while there’s a show that is entertaining and instructive. Here’s one:
During this one hour show entrepreneurs make sales pitches to a group of investors and either walk away with money or straight-talk-street-smart advice.
So far, I’ve found leadership lessons in every show (think ‘early Apprentice,’ before it went haywire or like ‘The Pitchmen’ before Billy Mays passed).
I have to thank my co-author Jennifer Henson and her husband Brian for turning me on to this show.
This is a great show for leaders and church planters. Check it out!
