Creativity, Collaboration, and Story with Jeff Dunn

The New Generation Leader - Your Tools for Winning in the Digital World

Jeff is an incredible dad, a great guy to coach basketball with, and now a published author.

He's wrapped up a successful Kickstarter campaign for his new book, A Buffalo Out of Water. And now it's time to share the story with the world.

After Jeff and his wife, Whitney became the proud parents of two great kids, a rare genetic syndrome led them to continue building their family through adoption.

We have had a front-row seat to watch their family welcome in two sons through adoption over these past few years. And now A Buffalo Out of Water will introduce kids to the beauty of adoption and help them understand how they can support and encourage their adopted friends.
