Warren was the FIRST person I talked to when I set up my business ten years ago. The fact that he gave me great advice is not the point here; the fact that he had established himself as an influencer in the start-up market, all those years ago, is.

Influence is one of those things that everybody wants but nobody knows quite what it is or how to get it. The ability to make people take certain actions, think certain thoughts, say certain things and feel certain ways is a fundamental skill for success. And never has influence been a more desirable quality than in today's crazy world of noise, distrust and confusion.
