A special episode of Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People that involves not one but nine remarkable people.

They are experts in the fields of such as psychology, history, decision sciences, and human behavior. They agreed to participate in this special project in order to help combat the coronavirus.

I asked them to assume that we figured out the development, manufacturing, and logistics of vaccination. Then I posed one question: how do we ensure as many people as possible get vaccinated?

Emma Isaacs forgot to draw up her life plan. Emma doesn’t believe in work/life balance and she’s never had a five year plan — instead she dives in headfirst to everything she does and wings it! Yet somehow she’s managed to found a multimillion-dollar global organization, become a sought-after speaker, and be recognized as a prominent voice in women’s leadership―all while raising six young children. In her book WINGING IT, Emma teaches that the only thing holding us back from having it all are our own fears, doubts and excuses. The book is a calling to chase your dreams and let go of perfection to focus on effort and attitude. Emma has built a thriving online community to support women called Business Chicks.

Mike Sinyard is the founder and chairman of Specialized Bicycle Components, an American manufacturer of bicycles with a cult following. In 1974, at the age of 24, Mike Sinyard began putting bikes together from Italian components he imported. He ran an import service, providing these sought after parts to California bike shops. Soon, mountain bikes became more common, but the choice was either a custom built, racey bike or a heavy rebuilt klunker. He knew he could build a viable bicycle for less than custom bikes cost, and thus the Specialized Stumpjumper was born in 1981.

Sinyard was inducted to the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in 1988. The StumpJumper mountain bike was added to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History’s collection in 1994. He was profiled in the 2007 documentary film Klunkerz: A Film About Mountain Bikes.

Entrepreneurs, inventors, and bike lovers will love this interview on this week’s episode of Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People podcast.

This episode’s guest is Tim Kendall. In my humble opinion, Tim’s greatest claim to fame is probably that he was an intern who worked for me.

That said, since then, Tim has held somewhat important positions at other companies you may have heard of such as Facebook and Pinterest.

And he was much more than an intern at both. He is the person who created Facebook’s monetization strategy as the director of monetization. This was way before the current monetization strategy of enabling foreign governments to influence American elections.

He was head of product and then president of Pinterest where he made the company “focus.” Lately, he has appeared in the film The Social Dilemma–which you should watch on Netflix if you are concerned about the future of the world, your kids included.

He is currently the president of Moment, a company that fosters physical, emotional, and social health by improving people’s relationships with their phones. He is one of the most qualified people in the world to analyze addiction to social media.

He has an undergraduate and MBA degree from Stanford. As an undergraduate, he was on the wrestling team. For those of you that don’t know much about collegiate wrestling, let’s just say that it attracts people who are extremely gritty, intelligent, and dedicated. In this sport, there are few externalities or outside factors to blame.

It’s you versus your opponent on a mat. And wrestlers know that there’s no lucrative MLB, NFL, NBA contract at the end of the contract but nevertheless they persist. In other words, wrestlers are the kind of people you’d want on your side.
