Talent Development Tuesday - The power of lateral thinking (head and brain icon)

The power of lateral thinking

“Chance favors the prepared mind.”Louis Pasteur

What do Benjamin Franklin, Jimmy Fallon, and the world’s best surfers have in common? They’re all people who have achieved great things, faster, in unconventional ways.

In his bestselling book, Smartcuts: How Hackers, Innovators, and Icons Accelerate Success, the author Shane Snow shares one story after another about how breakthroughs happen when hard work meets creative, lateral thinking.

The world needs more innovative thinkers and leaders. Here’s how to become one of them.

Snow will be our special guest facilitator for HOW to Think Differently, a complimentary, interactive Zoom webinar this Thursday at Noon Eastern, as part our 2021 webinar series, Together, We Create!

Plan now to join us for a quick, 30-minute webinar, which will be followed by a 15-minute Q&A. Snow will also share 2 great takeaways to help you develop your lateral thinking skills.

We hope you can make it! Register here.
