I just noticed an interesting feature on Twitter. Under “Profile” is a “Similar to You” section. Tens of millions of people have Twitter accounts. Every executive coach, consultant, and adviser, it seems, has a Twitter account.
Only one is similar to Tony Mayo. Stephen Covey, best-selling author of 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
No one else is similar to me, even Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence, though he does subscribe to my feed. So can you.
