After a decade of speaking all over the place, I finally have a nice lecture open to the public here at home in Seattle. The fine folks at Town Hall Seattle are hosting me for a lecture on Creativity next month, Wed March 9th 7:30pm.

I'd love for you to come. If you haven't seen me speak before, or its been awhile, this is a fun and provocative pile of ideas / stories / mythbustings to hear on a Wednesday night.

And please: if you know of friends or co-workers who might be interested, forward this along and help spread the word.

Description: How do you know if a new idea will succeed or fail? It's easy (even for experts) to get it wrong, relying too much on wishful thinking and a romanticized understanding of history. Based on the new edition of his bestselling book, The Myths of Innovation, creativity expert Berkun will dissect misguided notions of how ideas work and provide clear lessons from masters like Picasso, Da Vinci, and Edison, with crossover insights from the latest in art and technology. The first 50 people to attend will get a free copy of The Myths of Innovation.
