Michele Sullivan – Author “Looking Up” Book

Michele Sullivan, a TED Talk speaker, BookTV author and social impact advisor, shares success strategies on Off The Shelf Books Talk Radio (https://www.blogtalkradio.com/denise-turney-). The show that’s hosted by books author Denise Turney kicks off with a discussion of Simpson’s background, particularly her experiences growing up in the rural part of Illinois coupled with her experiences growing up with dwarfism. Tune into the show and you will gain insight into the inspiration behind Sullivan’s book, Looking Up.

Diversity and Inclusion Discussion

During the feature interview, diversity and inclusion talks between Sullivan and Turney extend beyond physical differences. In fact, the two women explore diversity and inclusion that aligns with different life experiences. An example of this is when Sullivan mentions thought process differences between someone who grew up in a missionary versus someone who grew up the only child of multi-billionaire parents. Although different, both people bring needed thoughts and skills to social, community and business tables.

TEDTalk Speaking Engagement

Other topics that Sullivan and Turney discuss during the Off The Shelf Books feature interview include Sullivan’s successful career at Caterpillar and how Sullivan landed her TEDTalk conversation, a public speaking experience that was introduced to Sullivan while she was at a United Nations meeting. Actions that take a person from surviving to thriving, accepting mistakes and living an interdependent life are also talked about. Listeners may gain insight into life skills that can help them come out of ruts, get unstuck and advance.
