KEYNOTES AND WORKSHOPS TO MOVE INTO THE AI ERA BY RELEARNING HOW TO THINK LIKE 10-YEAR OLDS

AI is changing how work gets done. Yet the biggest challenge isn’t learning new technology. It’s developing the mindset to adapt alongside it.
The professionals who thrive in an AI-driven workplace aren’t necessarily the ones with the most knowledge. They’re the ones who remain curious, ask better questions, experiment with new approaches, and continuously learn.
In other words, they think more like 10-year-olds.
AI rewards curiosity, experimentation, adaptability, and continuous learning – key traits of a 10-year old. Participants discover why many of the qualities they naturally possessed as children are becoming essential workplace skills again and how to use the CANDY framework to thrive alongside rapid technological change.
Organizations don’t become AI-ready because they buy technology. They become AI-ready because they build cultures that encourage curiosity, experimentation, learning, and intelligent risk-taking. This program shows leaders how to create an environment where people adapt and innovate rather than resist change.
Curated to meet your company’s needs, jump into an interactive, small group session of creativity fundamentals to develop innovation, teamwork, resiliency, goal setting, and communication. When everyone is feeling good about their creativity, they’ll be humbled and inspired by seeing how sixth graders did on the same workshop!
Participants learn why kids are more creative than adults and get techniques to break down barriers to creativity. Your audience will unleash their inner child and regain the youthful fearlessness and uninhibited creativity that fuels innovation.

As a kid, your world was full of possibilities. You asked bold questions, took risks, and saw problems as creative puzzles to solve because you didn’t know (or care) what wasn’t possible. As adults though, we often lose that fearless, imaginative mindset.
But what if tapping back into that 10-year-old way of thinking could help you and your company spark fresh ideas, innovate faster, and grow stronger to better compete in an ever-changing world?
