Keynotes

Creativity, leadership and unleashing everyday brilliance.

In today’s marketplace, there is an ever-increasing expectation that we will be on 24/7. In addition, most of us who work with our minds frequently find that we’re in a position where we have to be brilliant at a moment’s notice. But how to do that is a mystery that lives somewhere between prayer and the US Tax Code on the ambiguity scale.

My keynote topics focus on concrete practices that lead to increased creative brilliance. I customize each talk for the audience, and can also develop a custom talk for certain occasions. (In addition to these keynote topics, I also conduct a number of workshops through Accidental Creative. These are more intensive half and full-day interactive sessions designed to help teams be prolific, brilliant and healthy.)
