Dialogue is a fundamental ingredient of an organizational culture that values creativity. It is fundamental because without it, ideas are not challenged and leaders are protected from the scrutiny of diverse perspectives. Ideas become ingrained, encapsulated, and entrenched even when they have ceased to function or when new data has proven them to be obsolete. This presentation seeks to define what dialogue is. It looks at it as a process that involves six basic skills: listening, sharing, imagining, questioning, feeling, and seeing. It also outlines a simple procedure for leading your team through an exercise in dialogue.

Steve Jobs, the celebrity founder of Apple, was known for his vision, creativity and passion; less known is what drove his life and this book on Steve Jobs’ biography focuses upon his spirituality from Law of Attraction’s perspective.
The essence of Law of Attraction is: "like attracts like". It was mentioned by Napoleon Hill, had become the basis of the Abraham teachings with Ester and Jerry Hicks and made popular by Rhonda Byrne with “The Secret”.
Cristina has had an interest in spirituality from an early age and has formed her own perspective from her various studies. Steve Jobs’ life as well as a few aspects of her own life provides a though provoking book written with great deal of insight and sensitivity, exemplifying Law of Attraction at work in our lives and the value each life offers, no matter “the settings”.

Excerpts from "Daddy, I have a question." - Wizard AcademyTim Miles
A simple story about a complicated journey that led me to understanding everything I thought I knew about communication was wrong. It took a young man with a communications “disorder” (normies call it that) to open our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds to true connection. I showed our students there are many different kinds of minds and what a wonderful thing that is. Here’s what I shared with them. WARNING: It might seem kinda weird to you.
The Sunday Times #1 Bestseller
How do you get the most out of life's blink?
The best-selling “Stop Talking Start Doing”, was about making your dreams real. This one tackles a more fundamental question. Are you having the right dreams for you?
In this book we start at the beginning. With the right thinking tools and the right approach you can release your inspiration and creativity, reset your ambition and direct your attention to the things that truly matter to you. And that can change your life.
“You came into this world bursting with wonder, imagination, curiosity, the urge to be creative and, as any crawling wanna-walk baby will show you, you were born with unflinching and boundless ambition”, he says.
Now it’s time to rediscover that lust for life.
“Today your unshackled imagination is the truest designer of your future.
The new certainty is that everything changes, anything is possible and whatever you can imagine is probably on the cusp of being made real tomorrow and obsolete soon after.
So fast is the world transforming that only if you think wildly and recklessly will you even keep up with what’s coming down the road. Merely to keep up you must overshoot like an archer aims ahead of a moving object.
To go further, if you want to seize control and shape your future the requirement is clearer still: You must cast your imagination yet wider and think even bigger.
Because the bottom line is this, your imagination is now the limiting factor of your life. In the world of anything-is-possible the outer limits of thinking big are the barriers of your life.
Make them small and that is the life you will have. Throw them far and then never stop extending them and you shall never limit yourself.
You may not reach the ends of your imagination and ambition. But you will not go past it.”
Here are nine habits of mind, that will unshackle you from the busyness of life and all the noisy small staff . Inspired, you’ll demolish the barriers of narrow thinking, expand your frontiers, overshoot your current reality by a distance and never experience the dismay of “Massive Monday” again.
Here’s where it starts. This is a reset button. Push it.
“Very cool. Fun, fast and furious: my kind of life and this is my kind of book!”
Kevin Roberts – Worldwide CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi
“It pays to think big. This small book will set you on your way.”
Tim David – CEO BBC Worldwide
“Serious mind food that upsizes your thinking. A must read, but also a fun read: damn that Richard Newton!”
Robert Kelsey, bestselling author of What’s Stopping You? and Get Things Done
“Chock full of inspiration and advice to find your next big idea”
John Williams, bestselling author of Screw Work, Let’s Play

Excerpts from Who Are You? - Wizard AcademyTim Miles
I showed the students *why* most mission and vision statements were so terrible, and also *why* they never needed one but needed something much, much deeper if they wanted to get and keep clients and customers. With the exception of two, the questions I gave them to begin this journey didn’t come from business leaders. Many of them, they’ve heard before, but never for this purpose or this context. Isn’t that what creativity is: Looking at old things in new ways? In a moment, I’m going to share a few of those questions with you, too. What you do with them is entirely up to you. WARNING: It might seem kinda weird to you.

Brand Your Own Business - Opening General Session - PBE 2018Tim Miles

The First Order of Business - Garden Center Fall Event 2016Tim Miles
In addition to being the subject of Tim Miles' obsession over the last four years, The First Order of Business is a framework that categorizes and prioritizes communication, branding, and marketing for any family business or non-profit organization.
It’s also the baseline we use to analyze, diagnose and treat problem areas in our clients’ companies.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

13. So how does it feel to be autistic when you are
overstimulated? It feels like: 20 cologne smells (all
people around you are wearing different things, etc.
Autistics smell all of it), like hundreds of kids
running around you asking you questions in
different languages, like you’re sitting in a chair that
is missing one leg and trying to balance it while all
that is going on, and lights flickering…too much,
hence why autistics have Meltdowns.

Kristina DesJardins
Author, Autist
52. By autistic standards, the “normal” brain is
easily distractible, is obsessively social, and
suffers from a deficit of attention to detail
and routine. Thus people on the spectrum
experience the neurotypical world as
relentlessly unpredictable and chaotic,
perpetually turned up too loud, and full of
people who have little respect for personal
space.

Steve Silberman
65. And I gave them a saying to say:
"I am somebody. I was
somebody when I came. I'll be a
better somebody when I leave. I
am powerful, and I am strong. I
deserve the education that I get
here. I have things to do, people
to impress, and places to go."
79. Tony Schwartz
New York Times, 11/28/15
According to one recent survey [by Adobe], the average white-
collar worker spends about six hours a day on email. That
doesn’t count time online spent shopping, searching or keeping
up with social media.
The brain’s craving for novelty, constant stimulation and
immediate gratification creates something called a
“compulsion loop.” Like lab rats and drug addicts, we need
more and more to get the same effect.
Endless access to new information also easily overloads our
working memory. When we reach cognitive overload, our ability
to transfer learning to long-term memory significantly
deteriorates. It’s as if our brain has become a full cup of water
and anything more poured into it starts to spill out.

82. There's no question whatsoever that
multitasking, especially among those who do it
the most, is at the very least ineffective and at
the worst, harmful.
Basically, they are worse at most of the kinds
of thinking not only required for multitasking
but what we generally think of as involving
deep thought.
“
Dr. Clifford Nass

83. I believe that genius in the 21st
century will be attributed to people
who are able to unplug from the
constant state of reactionary
workflow ... and allow their minds to
solve the great challenges of our era.

88. For it to be effective, curiosity has to be
harnessed to at least two other key traits.
First, the ability to pay attention
to the answers to your questions—
you have to actually absorb whatever it
is you’re being curious about. Second
is the ability to act.

112. For too long, we've assumed that there
is a single template for human nature,
which is why we diagnose most
deviations as disorders. But the reality is
that there are many different kinds of
minds. And that's a very good thing.
“
Jonah Lehrer

114. I’ve learned that every human being, with or
without disabilities, needs to strive to do their
best, and by striving for happiness you will arrive
at happiness. For us, you see, having autism is
normal— so we can’t know for sure what your
“normal” is even like. But so long as we can
learn to love ourselves, I’m not sure how much it
matters whether we’re normal or autistic.

116. Number one in your life's blueprint, should
be a deep belief in your own dignity, your
worth and your own somebodiness. Don't
allow anybody to make you feel that you're
nobody. Always feel that you count. Always
feel that you have worth, and always feel
that your life has ultimate significance.

122. Dr. Rita F. Pierson, the daughter of Hazel and Julius
Walker, was born October 27, 1951 in Houston, Texas.
She departed this life on Friday, June 28, 2013.
Most recently she was recognized for sharing her
expertise on the PBS production of TED Talks. The
ABC television news magazine, 20/20 reported,
"Educator Rita F. Pierson talks about the bond that is
missing between educators and students". It was viewed
and modeled for educators as far away as New
Zealand. Over one million online viewers watched the
2013 TED Talks. [It’s now over seven million.]
Rita possessed a keen sense of observation and rare
ability to accept and respect people for who they were.
She never met a stranger and her infectious humor
touched all with whom she came in contact.
