The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything
What does it take to achieve personal success and feel like you are in your element? World-renowned innovator Sir Ken Robinson argues that it is not natural talent that drives personal success, but rather a delicate interplay between talent, passion, attitude and opportunity that brings people to achieve their highest levels of success and lead lives of meaning and purpose. Based on his newly released and highly acclaimed book The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, Robinson's talk takes audiences on a compelling tour of what can happen in all our lives when passion and talent meet.
This public lecture and invitational symposium will be a unique opportunity to share among Red Deer and area residents a vision of learning that will bring forward the best values and attributes for becoming a forward-thinking member of the next Alberta.
