Please join us at this special in-person event as Prof. Sheena Iyengar—an acclaimed author and expert in the science of choice—answers a timeless question with enormous implications for problems of all kinds across the world: “How can I get my best ideas?”
Iyengar provides essential tools to spark creative thinking and help us make our most meaningful choices. She draws from recent advances in neuro- and cognitive sciences to give readers a set of practical steps for coming up with powerful new ideas. Iyengar offers an innovative evidence-backed method for generating big ideas that she and her team of researchers developed and refined over the last decade.
For anyone looking to innovate, the black box of creativity is a mystery no longer. This talk which is the subject of Iyengar's latest book Think Bigger aims to upend the myth that big ideas are reserved for a select few. A few copies of the book will be available for sale and signing.
Time will be allocated for Q&A.
