5 of the World's Leaders in Creativity Come to Wellington

FOR RELEASE
UNTIL APRIL 16, 2015

Why 5 of the World's Leaders in Creativity Are Coming to Wellington

Five of the world's leading creativity experts are converging on Wellington. They will present at the biggest event of its kind ever held in New Zealand, the Creativity Challenge. Their ground breaking insights will help solve some of the most pressing issues that we are facing in New Zealand – the wealth gap, environmental issues, and large national debt, just to name a few.

According to Jonathan Milne, Founder of the Learning Connexion, the creative process is lost to many adults. He says, "If we want to thrive we need to encourage risk taking, experimentation, and the ability to see 'mistakes' as research.”

On April 17 to 19 Milne is hosting the Creativity Challenge in Lower Hutt, Wellington. "Among the outstanding list of presenters are several with international reputations, including Robert & Michelle Root-Bernstein, Steven Pritzker, Ruth Richards, and Arthur Cropley."

"Big benefits will be delivered to New Zealand when creative people connect across different fields such as the arts, science, technology, business, education, law, and other disciplines."

Jonathan is an entertaining and informed character who has taught students the process of creativity since 1987.
