Live! @ Rotman: Dan Pink

Dan Pink wrote the landmark Free Agent Nation in 2001. His writing inspired entrepreneurs and independent-minded people to head off on their own, down a new path.

Dan Pink’s second book, just published, is A Whole New Mind, and it will change the way business people think about thinking. A Whole New Mind explores Left-Brain and Right-Brain thinking, and applies it to the North American business world. A Whole New Mind looks at the new, revitalized role of creativity in an outsourced and automated society of abundance.

“If the Industrial Age was built on people’s backs, and the Information Age on people's left hemispheres, the Conceptual Age is being built on people’s right hemispheres. Want to get ahead today? Do something foreigners can’t do cheaper. Something computers can't do faster. Work your right-brained thinking back into shape.”—Dan Pink

Format: Dan will be “Live! @ Rotman” in conversation with Brian Kilgore, a public relations thinker-writer-practitioner. It's a Right-Brain format.

The Q&A session will be facilitated by Canadian Business Editor Joe Chidley.
