A Book-launch with a difference
My second book, The Idea Accelerator — How to solve problems faster using Speed Thinking (Allen & Unwin) was officially launched last Friday at the Accelerated Solutions Environment of Capgemini.
We did things a little bit differently on the day. Rather than have one official launch after work for example (which we did anyway) we had three workshops throughout the day each of 1.5 hours. Our aim was to talk briefly about the book but more importantly to give participants a speed thinking experience they would remember and talk about. There were 25 people in each workshop, containing a mixture of Capgemini consultants, clients and my clients.
We also video taped the sessions and you can see the result by clicking on the link below:

Some feedback from the session is as follows;
I swear we were thinking faster and more creatively. It was a good time too. Thanks Ken. Yes, it was a hit so congratulations. Natalie, Dell.
Ken – thank you so much for the invite. I learnt so much in 120 seconds!!! Certainly has opened my eyes even further, having just finished the book "Blink" all about thin slicing. Definitely a learning tool (speed thinking) we should be investigating further for our sales teams here at Dell. Chris, Dell.
Ken has created Speed Thinking as a resource to help anybody or team to unlock creativity and solve problems. Agency people will love it and will be able to apply it to their jobs and with clients.
Enough, he’s a bloody genius but fortunately his manner and modesty means everyone is engaged, energized and enlightened by his work. Ian, Proto Partners
To experience Speed Thinking and see how it can befit you and your team please email or give me a call — i would love to hear from you.
