34: Connecting People with Lyndsay Westby-Gibson Aug 02, 2014

Show notes

At the center of the Naval Warfare Development Command and its innovation mission is a connector who seems to know everyone in the innovation world. My guest today is Lyndsay Westby-Gibson, who has helped connect me with innovators and great guests in the past. We talk about what's going on over on the East Coast, and why MCPON is visiting NWDC later this month (we like to think it's because he loves the podcast).
