As the landscape for business continues to change, a clear vision is the key to successfully navigating tomorrow’s uncharted waters. By breaking apart traditional thinking, Erik Wahl will challenge and inspire attendees to redefine commonly held assumptions and misconceptions about creativity, goals, success, and vision; to sharpen their creative skills; and to identify a personal style for inspiring themselves and others to rethink vision and purpose. The principles in this uplifting and highly practical program will redefine the role of a leader as an artist as well as an architect.
Wahl’s unique understanding of vision traces back to his experience as an artist. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Business Communication before embarking on an eight-year career as a partner in a corporate firm. After first working in the business world and playing with his art, Wahl now PLAYS in the business world by WORKING with his art. Wahl’s sought after artwork can be seen hanging in executive offices around the world. To learn more about Erik Wahl, visit www.theartofvision.com.
