The next frontier is to tap the quiet genius that exists outside organizations to attract innovations from people who are prepared to work with a company, even if they don't work for it.New York Times, Mar 2006

We are proud and excited to induct Guy Kawasaki into the National Viking Association (NVA). The NVA honors people and organizations who have changed the world in ways we admire. Guy's words of wisdom have helped countless entrepreneurs navigate the turbulent start-up waters. Eight books, a top rated blog, and a killer slapshot make Guy an obvious choice as the third NVA inductee. We even sent him a letter!
Word on the street is Guy's a big hockey fan, so we're giving Guy a one-of-a-kind NVA hockey puck, card and jersey.
We're also passing Guy a white laptop for him to sign and pass on, for Cambrian House's FollowTheWhiteLaptop campaign. The laptop will make the rounds and eventually be auctioned for charity. (Check out www.FollowTheWhiteLaptop.com for more details.)
Thank you Guy for helping empower the entrepreneurs, and may the San Jose Sharks one day win a Stanley Cup!
