The most inspirational presentation, maybe ever

September 28th, 2007 Lois Kelly Posted in Leadership |

Randy Pausch, computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon recently gave his last lecture, “Really Achieving your Childhood Dreams.” It is one of most inspiring, well-told personal stories I’ve ever experienced. Dr. Pausch, just 46 years-old, is dying from pancreatic cancer and has just a few months to live. But this video isn’t at all sappy. It’s rich in joy and insightful lessons for how we live our professional and personal lives. Extraordinary.
