It couldn’t have been the Pixar tee-shirt

Ever take 16 years to take a small risk?

Have wanted to give a speech in my preferred method of dress for 16 years.

Jeans, t-shirt and running shoes.

Steve Jobs did it.

Tim Cook wears jeans and never tucks in his shirt.

The most admired company in the world and their leaders dress like that.

Gutsy, right?

Planned on a clothes change at the very end, to intentionally make a point.

It worked.

What terrified me for 16 years turned out to be painless.

But now it’s hard to know if the standing ovation was because of the content delivery, or from the Pixar tee-shirt.
