Some people have a knack for sparking our curiosity. The most inspiring amongst them are memorable communicators. With their charisma and clever, concise delivery, they influence us to be better, to reach further, and leap higher. Some of these influencers are people we read about in books or see on television. If we are lucky, they are a family member with whom we share meals at our own dinner table. Between them, Laura and Brian Blank have been blessed with the good fortune of impactful role models found in each of these places.
