Post the success of PODCAMP NYC I've been considering WHY.
This morning listening to CNC's Rick Santelli reporting from the Chicago Board of Trade around 8.40am provided some real clues.
Speaking about stock market statistics Mr.Santelli said:
"I love the market.
It's my passion, my hobby, my job."
Video is here. Appears near end of segment.
PODCAMP NYC overflowed with people passionate and enthusiastic about podcasting, many working hard to turn a hobby into a job and business.
The energy in the room was contagious and noticeable because it is so often missing from established organizations. The work of Rob Cross and his colleagues at the Network Roundtable first focused my attention on managing energy in organizations. Here's a recommended paper, fully available only to Roundtable members.

Note to CNBC: Love your TV channel but despite your HEAVY promo of the new web site have to tell you in my experience it's CLUNKY and your search engine needs serious help. Had to go to Google to locate Rick Santelli's bio (with bonus of discovering how widely he is mentioned.) And if perchance anyone at CNBC is reading, WAY too much CNBC branding in the header IMHO.
