I was so lucky, to have John Elkington as a guest in my podcast. He needs no introduction, his contribution to the world speaks volumes.
I think one of his greatest strengths is his kindness. Everyone wanted to speak to him and he was giving attention and advice to each one.
In his closing note, he touched a few chords. It was inspiring and had a strong message as well. I saw the joy in his face when is saw the poster of the pink boat hanging in the networking area.
In this episode, he shares a success story about Max Nicholson. You can learn more about Max Nicholson here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Max_Nicholson
