Did you love school or hate school? Did you do well or did you struggle? I just watched Ken Robinson give his famous TED talk called, “How Schools Kill Creativity.” It has inspired me even more to do the work I do in a bigger and more powerful way for all of you and all of us! It reminds me of what moves me in all my work form my very beginnings to this moment. I have always been dedicated to inspiring the creative process in both children and adults. 


I have spoken with many of you who are ready to bring your talents out into the world. I love that and always have. I love this video but I am upset because I still see the problem in the education system. Yet I am also encouraged because I see a real change in the entrepreneurial world as more and more of us are bringing our talents out into the world. And it turns out that storytelling is a central part of this creative process, both in the discovery and creation of original content, as well as in the development of powerful tools of communication and connection.


Watch this video and recommit to making your talents and creativity a priority in your life and work. You can do it!

Also listen to the power of the stories he tells and how you will never forget them and their message.
If this video is about you and you want to develop your creativity and your story let me know as I am developing a new training program on Storytelling, Creativity and Leadership.
I have been thinking about the relationship between leadership, creativity and storytelling. What are the qualities of great leadership, why is creativity so important and why is it so significant for people in leadership to tell their stories? When I think about great leaders in every area of life from business leaders to religious leaders I see their creativity and their stories as a core element of how we see their greatness. What makes a great leader and how leadership  is developed and shared through our stories has become a focus of my current thinking.
I am in the process of creating a year long group training program based on developing storytelling, creativity and leadership skills.  I am telling you, my loyal followers and clients. I want to hear your thoughts and needs.
