Canada's Idea Man

Bob Hooey
For 22 plus years I have wracked my brain to find something informative, provocative, or at least entertaining to share with my readers, clients, and subscribers. We even did an
Ideas At Work!
newsletter every month for 10 solid years.
In creating this book (two volumes) I decided to go though all those posts and articles and share a few that I felt might be of value to you. Enjoy!
The Global Speakers Summit foundation event was held in 2013 in Vancouver, BC. It was called,
The Music, The Magic, and The Message
. Our purpose was to continue supporting our CAPS Foundation as well as help start foundations in some of our other Global Speakers Federation member organizations. We were successful on both objectives. This was my final event as a member of our CAPS Foundation Board where I had served for the previous 5-years. I worked with my fellow board members to take us from an idea to a functioning foundation able to assist our speakers, should they need help.
When this project started, I didn't realize how much I had written over the years and ended up splitting the volume into two volumes. 1) The
early years
(1998-2009) and 2)
The saga continues
(2010-2019) and, who knows, perhaps there will be further volumes and maybe one final one called
The last years
. ����
I trust you will be able to find something in this smorgasbord of ponderings. I've collected them by year and picked some of the better ones. Some ideas, some good news, some travel adventures... all in one place. A Tip of the Hat - enjoy!
