Episode Description
Brian Williams may be an unlikely success – or perhaps a graceful illustration of responding to life’s early challenges with grit and resilience. He had a hard start in life, having growing up without a father and labeled mentally retarded by teachers. Later, he would go on to receive a full academic scholarship to Texas A and M and receive his Computer Science degree. He later built a career that allowed him to eventually take leadership positions in several Fortune 500 technology companies. After leaving corporate America, Brian and his wife Tasha joined forces to start their own consulting company, Perspectivity International. In this episode, we explore the early life experiences that shaped who Brian is today, his career and other experiences that contributed to the person he is, and the work he does today to alter the way his clients communicate to increase the impact they so ardently aspire.
