I’m not sure why, but if you’ve written a book and your name is Dan or Danny, you have a greater likelihood of appearing on Read to Lead. It must just be a name that parents of sons who are also fans of books just happen to like. In the case of today’s guest, I’m talking about our latest Dan(ny). More specifically, Danny Iny. Danny is a high school dropout who managed to eventually earn an MBA from Canada’s elite Queen’s School of Business. He’s now written nine books including Leveraged Learning (the book we’re discussing today), along with Engagement from Scratch!, The Audience Revolution, and two editions of Teach and Grow Rich. Danny’s work is followed by more than 100,000 experts and professionals across various outreach channels (email, social media, blog, column on Inc.com, etc.), and over the course of the last few years they’ve invested over $10M toward training on the Leveraged Learning opportunity through his books and acclaimed courses, such as the Course Builder’s Laboratory.
