Keynote — Start with Wow
How to Leverage the Groundbreaking Science of Awe and Wonder to Innovate and Win in Leadership and in Life
Simon says, “Start with Why,” but there’s an important step getting skipped by countless leaders and it’s costing them. In this highly-acclaimed keynote, Harris makes the case that we should actually “Start with Wow,” and lays the groundwork for how leading with “wow” leads to game-changing thinking, culture and innovation.
Based on the latest research and neuroscience as showcased in his bestselling book, The Wonder Switch, Harris will take you on an unforgettable journey back to a state where truly anything is possible–the state of child-like wonder. In a culture of rapid and unprecedented change, he'll help you understand how worry is a misuse of their imagination, and how every member of every team has the capacity to create, innovate, and solve big problems by starting with “wow” instead of “how.”
This is more than just another talk by just another speaker––it’s a transformative experience of magic, storytelling, insights, and ideas that will capture both your mind and heart, all while offering a new, narrative-shifting paradigm that leaves you never seeing yourself, or your work, the same again.
