Stand Out in a Crowd — Wisdom from Dan Heath

Are you the kind of 'donut' (aka job seeker) that stands out in a crowded market place of many job seekers?

Much thanks to Randy Mayeux for the blog at First Friday Book Synopsis.  Watch the video to learn about stand-out donuts.

(From Guy Kawasaki, from Twitter, a link to a terrific video featuring Dan Heath — one of the two Heath brothers, authors of Made to Stick).

A great, insightful, motivating 3 minute video.  He points to Voodoo Donuts and zipcar rentals.  He tells us that if you’re in a crowded market, you need to do something that no one else does or compete on one dimension and do it ferociously.

Watch the video here – I promise you, it is worth the 3 minutes!
