Thunder 11 president and former Burson-Marsteller managing director Marco Greenberg has released a book that aims to uncover the traits which allow some people to overcome challenges that defeat others. Primitive: Tapping the Primal Drive That Powers the World’s Most Successful People says that “primitives” disregard the “civilized rule book” and leverage some of the deepest inborn human qualities to successfully navigate a rapidly changing world. Greenberg has led communications and public affairs for startups as well as Fortune 500 corporations, as well as writing for publications including Business Insider, the New York Daily News and Tablet Magazine. The book has reached #4 on the Wall Street Journal list of hardcover business books.
