Analogies Can Change The World

As a former speechwriter for Bill Clinton, John Pollack understands the subtle but powerful ability that analogies have to inspire, influence and move others to action. We speak with John, who authored “Shortcuts: How Analogies Reveal Connections, Spark Innovation, and Sell Our Greatest Ideas”, to learn more about this highly relatable tool for communication.
