I was watching an amazing talk last night about leadership from Benjamin Zander, an English classical music conductor. He has the most inspiring way of talking about leadership. To think like a leader, you always have to speak about a goal as if there is no doubt in your mind. If you want to put a PC on every desk and classroom in the world, then you need to believe it. That’s how you move from a naïve idea, to building one of the world’s largest multi-billion dollar companies.
Watch Benjamin’s TED talk below and you’ll see what I mean.
Also, be sure to listen to the Chopin piece he plays in the video. I’m going to use Apture to link it up for you so you can listen to it separately and even see the song and the composer’s history. Isn’t empathy great? 
I’m even going to include the sheet music:

How did you link in the TED talk?
Hi Tristan,
Great post. As a musician, I particularly like how you harness Apture to show sheet music side by side (at a reasonable size) with a video of a performance. Congratulations on your funding.
