Featured Speaker
Making Global Change in 2009 with Curiosity, Paper and Pen
Ole Qvist-Sørensen, Co Founder, Bigger Picture
Find a napkin and a pen. Imagine a world in balance. Draw it. Then think of a burning question you have. One that you would like to ask a decision maker you know. This is a great start on a simple change journey. The world is reaching several tipping points. The complexity of the crisis is immense and the need for clarity and action is growing. The opportunity for visual thinkers, designers and strategists is huge, and our contribution is desperately needed. This session will start with pen, paper and the following questions: How might we step up and offer our approaches, skills, and tools to assist leading thinkers, politicians, business people, and scientists in sensing deeper, communicating clearer, and acting faster?
