I went and saw Zander for free last year thanks to Babson and if you ever get a chance while in Boston, I highly recommend it.

Quote from Garr Reynolds in the link: <blockquote> How do you know if you are "awaking the possibility" in each student, or each audience member, Zander asks. The answer? "Look at their eyes. If their eyes are shining, you know you're doing it." Zander goes on to say "...if the eyes are not shining you have to ask yourself a question: who am I being that my player's eyes are not shining?" </blockquote> Oh, you’ll like Benjamin Zander.
