Becoming Referable with Michael Roderick and Chris Cooper
How do you become so highly referable that you become as popular as a Broadway show?
My guest Michael Roderick is the CEO of Small Pond Enterprises which helps thoughtful givers become thought leaders by making their brands referable, their messaging memorable, and their ideas unforgettable. His frameworks have been featured in Forbes and Business Insider and many popular podcasts. Michael is also the host of the podcast Access to Anyone. Michael began his career in education teaching High School English before breaking into the world of Broadway producing. He made this transition in less than two years prompting colleagues to ask him how he did it. This led to Michael creating a series of experiential workshops to study the dynamics behind relationship building and messaging.
He also founded a popular conference for Connectors called ConnectorCo and Relationship Adventure Day, a networking event combined with a scavenger hunt set in New York City.
