For the last time this summer, I'm sharing a chapter from my new book The Art of Relevance to celebrate its release. This chapter, from the last section of the book, is very personal to me. Doron doesn’t work with A students or B students. Read more online and buy your own copy today. Hanging out.

Because it was my first time meeting the students, part of the half hour was spent getting to know each other. I highly recommend volunteering with young people, whether they are as little as a kindergartner, or as old as a college student. Today, 826 has chapters in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Michigan, and Boston.
