Event Overview

No one is prepared for parenting: It’s a “learning on the job” experience, and as such, it’s not uncommon for the first offspring to be an “experiment” followed by improvements should additional offspring arrive. Now given innovation is a mystery in its own right raising innovative children becomes almost an inconceivable challenge. However, this should not be the case.

Innovation is like the weather: It’s widely discussed, poorly understood while being critically important. Much has been written about how innovation drives competitiveness be it as a person, community, business or country and is critical to increasing our quality of life. So how does one approach these two complicated topics, parenting and innovation, when they have such an important impact on our lives? This is what I’ll do in teaching “10 Steps for Raising Innovative Children”.

The class will be a 2 -4 hour conversation about innovation, how it can be taught, learned, and mastered providing parents with a counter balance to what their children will experience in school which is often counter-innovative.

Each student is expected to learn what innovation is, and is not, how one can cultivate innovative behaviors for their children and themselves and a process for solving problems that can be applied to whatever a person encounters leading to a better life while making the world a better place.
