Moments With Marianne

Daniel Bruce Levin walked away from an opportunity to run a business that was a household name in order to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace.  The people he met along his journey remind him a lot of the characters in The Mosaic.  For most of his life, Levin felt different.  He saw things others did not see and thought in ways that were unlike the ways of his peers.  It made him feel alone and isolated, and though he knew how to play the game and interact with others well, he never felt he was the same as them.  This all changed when he started to work with leaders seeking innovation.   Levin, a connectivity expert and business leader, works with governmental organizations, corporations and businesses to improve how people treat themselves and each other.  Sharing a message of unification, he is a popular speaker for groups whose focus is on problem-solving, innovation and conflict resolution.   https://themosaiconline.com/http://danielbrucelevin.com/
