EP #184: Mobilizing Generosity with Brian Kluth
Generosity must be taught.
This was the key theme of my conversation with Brian Kluth. Brian is the Generosity mobilizer and he comes with 40+ years of experience helping people be better givers.
It’s not surprising that Brian is such a leader - a true servant leader. All of his efforts these days are to help other people have a better experience here on Earth and even someday after their time here is done. He made me think a lot about radical generosity. He’ll make you think, “What am I doing with what I have to make someone else’s world better?” It’s a healthy challenge. Get ready to feel a deep sense of purpose.
