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 among 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 takes audiences on a compelling tour of what can happen in all our lives when passion and talent meet.

Sir Ken draws on the personal stories of high achievers in many fields, including Sir Paul McCartney, Arianna Huffington, Matt Groening (creator of The Simpsons), Meg Ryan and renowned physicist Richard Feynman. With a wry sense of humor, Sir Ken helps audiences understand:

What it takes to find "The Element" in our own lives
Why age and occupation are no barrier
How to enhance creativity and innovation in both personal and professional settings
How focusing on "The Element" is an essential strategy in transforming education, business and communities to meet the challenges of living and succeeding in the twenty-first century
