Ditch The Act

Ditch The Act

Ditch The Act by Ryan Foland and Leonard Kim was a special read for the Bird Rock Systems team! This book opened up our minds to how we can elevate our own personal brand by being vulnerable, relatable, and honest in order to make a long-lasting and meaningful impression. 

Thanks to our CEO, we were able to have a virtual meet and greet with one of the authors! Ryan Foland helped our team work through some of the exercises in his book to give us a better understanding of how we can simply introduce ourselves and answer the question, "What do you do?" in a way that emphasizes our value but not giving too much away. The idea of the exercise was to keep your answers simple, yet intriguing by following his simple formula. What is the formula? You'll have to read the book, to find out!

You could say we're the CEO of choosing amazing books!

Surfboard

DONATE A SURF BOARD, CHANGE A LIFE

We are looking for surf board and boogie board donations, in partnership with Mi Sueno Foundation, to give to the children at Door of Faith orphanage in Baja, California. The orphanage is close to the coast and we know all board donations will be put to great use. The ocean is a special place, and being able to open up that world to the children of Baja can be life changing! 

Please contact me directly, jim@birdrockusa.com. If you would like to donate a board (short boards preferred), please include a photo if possible. Learn more ways to support Door of Faith Orphanage at https://www.corazondevida.ord/contact
