[close] This is the collaborative bookclub and bookshelf for the Dent community. Dent is a fast growing community that includes a diverse array of individuals — entrepreneurs, scholars, artists, activists, designers, investors, nonprofit leaders and more — brought together by shared desire to make sense of the current moment. We convene regularly in the Dent Forum to learn from one another and explore topics we want to better understand.  An ongoing theme for us is economic reform.  It’s clear capitalism is failing us; we want to formulate a point of view on how to improve it.  The state of democracy around the world is a related inquiry.  We question what cultural norms need to change if we are to transition to an equitable, sustainable future.  We ask how might the COVID-19 pandemic present opportunities to accelerate the change we wish to see in the world.Dent builds collective wisdom via shared learning.  Through thoughtful civic discourse, we make sense of the current times and develop a vision for a more equitable, caring, regenerative future. In addition to establishing a common intellectual foundation, our convenings seek to inspire action and foster support for each other’s work.   Read more here: http://denttogether.org/ This shelf is actively maintained by the dent community please reach out directly at info@denttogether.org

You have to be the best of the best to get in and then work your butt off to prove you belong there. This world is fierce, competitive and harsh, some can't stand the pressure. Will you be one of those few? Or will you succeed and earn yourself a place among the best this world has to offer?

[close] Pat Grelson and I have started a little Goodreads group that we have called Views By Moose. The idea is to have a place we can add titles of really great resources, either of those we’ve read or wish to read. It might be the start of a great LLC bibliography!
