The Element

The Element by Sir Ken Robinson
This amazing book opened up my eyes to learning.  Learning is action.  The Element is finding the space where learning, growth and happiness/fulfillment go together for you.  So for each of us it is different.  Take a minute to imagine that space - where you act in tune with who you are - you are a creative individual. Think about the people you lead....do you allow them to be in their element?
"People who think differently make the world a more interesting place. We need to nurture and help develop creative people, instead of labeling them as damaged."


[Temple Grandin, Author of 
Thinking in Pictures]

"Ken Robinson presents the theme of creativity and innovation in a way that makes you want to go out and make your dreams a reality. In his wonderfully easy-to-read and entertaining style he presents the stories of many who have done just that. This is a valuable book for educators and community leaders ... most important, it is a book that lightens and lifts the minds and hearts of all who read it.
"

[Susan Jeffers, PhD., bestselling author of Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway® and Life Is Huge!


"The Element gives you the feeling that all is possible if we dig deeply within ourselves, utilizing imagination and curiosity."


[Vidal Sassoon, hairdresser and businessman] - (all reviews originally by theelementbook)
 
Sir Ken Robinson will be at Leadercast on May 6, 2011.  To find a site in your area click here:  Leadercast

What is Your Trajectory?


Have You Planned to Hit the Bullseye?
Professional success and personal development go hand in hand.  If you plan to reach your goals, you will hit the mark.  Helping to increase your chances of success and keep your career trajectory on track is the implementation of a personal development plan.

Pretty easy to do....list your strengths and areas of opportunity and quickly jot down ways in which you can continue to leverage your strengths to build your opportunities into strengths as well....or simple build more opportunities.

If you would like a template, simply post a note on this blog and I would be happy to send you one and walk you through it!

Looking forward to hearing from you!
