A friend sent me this NPR clip about how a high % of entrepreneurs have dyslexia. The research study showed that 35% of US entreprenerus are dyslexic accoreding to the London's Cass School Business. It is a very fasncinating interview. My Mom told me after college that I was diagnosed as midly dyslexic when I was a child. If you do have dyslexia then you are in good company with famous CEOs like Virgin's Richard Branson or Cisco's John Chambers.

When I think of working with and for you, Matt, what comes to mind is more ADHD than dyslexia. :) Some of the most wide-ranging, topic-jumping conversations in our 1:1's. Not to mention making me follow you into the men's room to ensure our conversation did not stop while you took care of business. So fun to read your musings here and regain access to your insights.
