Dr. James R. Gregory is the founder of NYLAQ Advisors. He is also chairman emeritus of Tenet Partners, a global brand innovation and marketing firm based in New York, NY. One of the key secrets to his success was his passion for writing. Over the next four decades, he wrote a series of business books that helped build not only our business brand but also my personal reputation. Some of the titles he crafted include “Marketing Corporate Image,” “Leveraging the Corporate Brand,” “Branding Across Borders,” “The Best of Branding,” and “Powerhouse, the Secrets of Corporate Branding.” After successfully exiting the business, he embarked on a new journey – writing fiction. He quickly discovered that his favorite genre was short reads in the form of novellas. Drawing upon extensive business experiences, personal life, and current events, he crafts stories that can be enjoyed in just one sitting, whether it’s an evening at home or a cross-country flight.

Author and New Yorker writer, Tony Hiss and I discuss what the Half-Earth project is, why it matters, and many more issues he writes about in his book, "Rescuing The Planet: Protecting Half The Land to Heal The Earth". We then shift into discussing "Life On The Mississippi" by Mark Twain and how we all need to rewire our brains like a Mississippi pilot does.
