Description
Join us as CNBC senior talent producer Lori Ann LaRocco, discusses her latest book, OPPORTUNITY KNOCKING: Lessons from Business Leaders (Agate B2, 978-1-932841-87-9). This is a unique opportunity to hear lessons from the likes of Ford CEO Alan Mulally, AOL cofounder and former chief executive Steve Case, and the founders of the vast web community BlogHer, as LaRocco profiles each of these figures (and more) in her newest book.
Known as the “producer with the trillion-dollar rolodex,” LaRocco has earned the reputation as someone who can get business leaders and entrepreneurs to spill the secrets to their success. Through exclusive interviews with typically tight-lipped corporate titans in the financial, tech, energy, and media industries, LaRocco recognized that all these figures share similar methods for identifying opportunities and executing strategies for success. Opportunity Knocking compiles these secrets, as revealed in never-before-heard interviews, into LaRocco’s “Opportunity Pyramid,” delivering real-world examples from a range of America’s most successful businesspeople.
Light refreshments will be served and copies of Lori Ann's book will be available for sale, proceeds to benefit the Robbins Library.
