Overview:

Do you ever feel as if you are running on a treadmill:  you're really, really busy but somehow, you're not doing your best work or the work that matters most to you?  If so, then this book is for you!  

The Accidental Creative is packed full of tools and techniques you can apply immediately to help you find the mind space you need to solve your most challenging problems and the discipline to focus on the work that matters most.

“Mr. Henry’s prescription for maximizing productivity is sagacious, innovative, and sublimely practical. The Accidental Creative is high-octane fuel for creative productivity.”

—Steven Pressfield, NY Time’s best-selling author of The War of Art and The Legend of Bagger Vance 

Each day we are face escalating expectations and a continual squeeze to do more with less. We are asked to produce an ever-increasing amount of brilliance in an ever-shrinking amount of time. There is an unspoken (or spoken!) expectation that we'll be accessible 24/7, and as a result we frequently feel like we're "always on." Now business creativity expert Todd Henry explains how to unleash your creative potential. Whether you're a creative by trade or an "accidental creative," this book will help you quickly and effectively integrate new ideas into your daily life.

This engaging discussion will be facilitated by Adriana McLane, Growth Strategist and SCORE mentor.

As a reminder, you don't have to read the book to attend! Most do not, and we always have a very engaging discussion!

During this roundtable we'll:

· share our own experiences in this area in our businesses
· share best practices from our own personal experience or from industry thought leaders
· share ideas on how to improve the area within our businesses to fuel growth

Note: We are looking for people to facilitate book discussions in 2016, so please don’t hesitate to contact me if there is a book that you’re passionate about and would like to share with the group. The meetings take place the second Friday of every month. Thanks!
