2025 -- Feed Your Curiosity! A YEAR OF LEARNING!

“My synopses are almost like getting your whole team to read a book together, which enables your own conversation on how to implement the key lessons from the book. Lifelong learning in real time.” – Randy Mayeux

-----------------

In our 28th year of the FIRST FRIDAY BOOK SYNOPSIS! -- Over 630 books presented!

Each month, Randy Mayeux presents synopses of two useful, best-selling business books. Randy provides a thorough, comprehensive synopsis handout, and then presents the synopses.

People follow along on their handouts while Randy speaks, marking them up with their own notes. The First Friday Book Synopsis is truly a shared learning experience!

{This registration is for the in-person gathering at the Park City Club -- but the presentation is also streamed live on Zoom}.


{NOTE: You do NOT need to read the books!}

If you cannot attend in person, but would like to participate remotely, on Zoom, visit Randy's blog for details.


The two books for the October 3 session are:


1. Strong Ground: The Lessons of Daring Leadership, the Tenacity of Paradox, and the Wisdom of the Human Spirit (A Dare to Lead Book) by Brené Brown


and

2. How Progress Ends: Technology, Innovation, and the Fate of Nations by Carl Benedikt Frey
