The videos aren’t out yet, but you can now get a copy of the “official” notes from #thenines thanks to Leadership Network and Catalyst.

Download the notes.

If I’m not mistaken, these were the notes that ran alongside the videos as they played.

And according to today’s email update:

…watch THE SHOW next Tuesday, September 29 to find out where and when they’ll release all the videos. If you like, they’ll even send you a reminder so you won’t forget to watch.
