The lady (this time it was a lady) spoke - amongst other things - about growth mindset and Carol Dweck (she's super cool if you want to check her out) which is unusual, and as a fan of the CD I was impressed they linked her ideas and process to business. Common sense I guess. Ain't it always! Any hoo, one of the things the lady also spoke about was the 60 second pitch. I dislike the word pitch in that context; pitch fork is cool, black as pitch, also cool, pitch as a perceptual property of sound, super cool.
