“Disrupt Togethe r addresses how teams leverage individual skills to multiply their innovation power. This book elegantly instructs us how to compete in a world that demands change as a normative function.”
--John Couch, Vice President of Education, Apple

“Steve Spinelli and Heather McGowan rock because they get one simple fact--if you are not disrupting, then you have no chance to change the world, and even better, when you are done disrupting, you can do it all over again. Can you tell I love these guys!!”
