The Innovator

If you didn't watch 60 minutes last weekend  I highly recommend watching this video! It's about the creator of Twitter and the company Square, Jack Dorsey. Some call him the next Steve Jobs and I can certainly see why. In terms of innovating there are a lot of similarities between them despite the fact they are totally different people. With Jack Dorsey, besides the simplicity and brilliance of his innovations, what I personally find most intriguing about him is his personality. Dorsey describes himself as extraordinarily reserved and shy! Ironic then that he's the one that has created what is currently my favorite social network, Twitter. The best part of it all for me is how his naturally quiet state of being goes along perfectly with the theme of the book I'm reading called Quiet: The Power of Introverts by Susan Cain. I couldn't help getting all excited last Sunday when I heard Jack Dorsey explaining his introverted self! I still have about 30 pages left with the book and I'm trying to savor every one of them. When I'm done I will blog about it. Then maybe you will better understand my enthusiasm.
