Fearless Creative Leadership

Ep 139: Stephanie Nadi Olson

This episode is being published within a couple of days of the very sad news that Sir Ken Robinson has died. He was perhaps the world's leading thinker and expert on creativity and innovation. His original TED Talk, Do schools kill creativity?, is the most-watched in the history of TED. If you haven't seen it, take 18 minutes and watch it. It's extraordinary.

Ken believed in the potential of every child. At its core, his message was profound and simple. Every human being is remarkable.

I was fortunate to spend a fair amount of time with Ken between 2006 and 2008. Everywhere he went, people stopped him to say that watching his talk had changed their life.

My sense from watching people's response to Ken was they thought he believed in them more than they believed in themselves.

He was 70 when he died, much too young. But his legacy is extraordinary.

If you haven't watched his TED Talks, I encourage you to take a few minutes and do that.

They might just change your life.

Stephanie Nadi Olson is the Founder and CEO of We Are Rosie.

They are built to unlock the potential of people.

I suspect Sir Ken would have approved.
