Restoring Batman’s Forgotten Co-Creator

We've all been there—spotting something fundamentally unfair and thinking, 'Wow, somebody really should do something about that'. Marc Tyler Nobleman thought the same thing when he discovered that Bill Finger, Batman's actual co-creator, had been erased from history for 76 years while the artist took all the credit. But here's the difference: Marc didn't just shake his head and move on. He launched a nine-year battle against DC Comics, a billion-dollar corporation armed with nothing but determination and the truth. And he won. His campaign resulted in a Hulu documentary, a TED Talk, a book called "Bill the Boy Wonder," and speaking engagements across nearly 20 countries. Marc Nobleman proves that you don't need power, money, or connections to win battles that everyone else has already declared unwinnable.

Networking the Introvert Way

Can introverts actually be better at networking than extroverts? In this episode, we're joined by Steve Spiro, a self-described introvert who became a Master Connector by doing the opposite of what most sales advice teaches. Instead of fighting who he was, he leveraged it, drawing on his martial arts training as a black belt in Karate and Jiu-Jitsu to develop an authentic approach to connection. Through his book "The TAO of a Master Connector" and his LinkedIn Live show, Steve now teaches other introverts that their perceived weakness can become their greatest networking strength.
