About this listen
On a budget trip to Europe in 1975, Tim Leatherman started making a list of ideas for what to do with the rest of his life. After months of fixing the plumbing in cheap hotels and toiling on his temperamental Fiat, Tim added to his list: “add pliers to pocket knife.” Little did he know he would spend the following four decades building an iconic American company that would go on to manufacture more than 90 million multi-tools in its Portland, Oregon, factory.
His latest multi-tool is a book.
In The Leatherman Book, Tim uses the pieces of his story as tools to help dreamers, entrepreneurs and creatives of all kinds build their own big ideas. Insights, advice and lessons learned include:
• You don’t have to be "qualified" to pursue your big idea
• If you’re serious about your principles, they become your competitive advantage
• Your most important tool is a willingness to figure things out as you go along
Weaving storytelling, advice, and never-before-seen photos, this is a visionary and intimate look at a true American icon, sure to inspire dreamers and enable them to bring their ideas to life.
