PRAISE FOR Who Says?
"Joe Mechlinski's Who Says? is a powerful reminder that we are all making it up moment by moment. This book reveals a vision of work and life that is more expansive, creative, and alive. Pay attention-and take notes!"
--DANIEL H. PINK, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Regret and Drive
"The journey of Who Says? sets readers on the path to action. From not knowing to knowing. From ignorance to learning. From incremental change to innovation. From memorize to memory. From follower to leader. Joe has given us a map."
--RICHARD SAUL WURMAN, founder of TED and author of 91 books
"The future belongs to those ready to grab a sledgehammer and shatter outdated assumptions. That's why this book isn't for everyone. Conformists won't like it. Rule-followers won't get it. Bureaucrats will burn it. Who Says? reveals how to live according to what's possible, instead of being confined by what is."
--SALLY HOGSHEAD, New York Times bestselling author of Fascinate
"Joe is one of the deepest thinkers on the future of work I know of. His insights are always incredible and come from his own deep personal lived experience and decades advising and working with those pushing the bounds most!"
--RIAN DORIS, CEO of Flow Research Collective
"Who Says? is a must-read for anyone looking to be challenged and inspired."
--STEVE PRUETT, Executive Chairman of Cox Media Group
"Joe Mechlinski has turned into one of the most powerful voices in America. And I don't say that lightly. He is telling the story about how practicing capitalism differently is actually the path to greater societal and financial value and a life well lived. WHO SAYS it can't be done?"
--JEFF CHERRY, CEO of the Novella Center for Entrepreneurship
"Who Says? empowers readers to critically and deeply think in ways that challenge our 'shoulds' and redefine success on our own terms. Joe's vulnerable and brilliant storytelling, soulful wisdom, and life-changing (and life-challenging) questions, make this book a game-changer for anyone seeking to revolutionize their approach to work and life."
--JACKIE INSINGER, bestselling author of Spark Brilliance
