OTR – Ben Arment
Ben Arment is a guy who may say things that you’ve heard before. The difference is that he is actually doing what he says.
Ben has gotten to a point where “you can replace your salary with alternative sources of revenue so that you don’t have to live in a cubicle and get your best ideas shot down by unimaginative people with no tolerance of risk.” (cited from his blog) He has launched innovative projects like Dream Year, where he empowers 24 people to achieve a big goal in a year. He’s the founder of the Story conference in Chicago, and he wrote a book called Church in the Making.
Ben is a super creative guy that is redefining what it looks like to actually make creativity happen.
