Career Enhancement Series Event – Washington, DC

Surrounded by Geniuses: Unlocking the Brilliance in Yourself, Your Colleagues and Your Organization

Dr. Alan S. Gregerman
President and Chief Innovation Officer, Venture Works, and author of "Surrounded by Geniuses: Unlocking the Brilliance in Yourself, Your Colleagues and Your Organization" and "Lessons from the Sandbox"

Join fellow alumni for this dynamic session that takes a very humorous, serious and surprising look at the real keys to bringing out the brilliance in everyone in your organization. It begins with a simple premise—that everyone has the ability to make a major contribution to your company's bottom-line performance—but somewhere between the sandbox and the world of work most of us lose the knack for "leaping tall buildings in a single bound." Dr. Gregerman, renowned authority on strategy, innovation, and the hidden potential of adults will take participants on a journey around the world to unlock some amazing lessons about motivation, commitment, and initiative.

Called the "Robin Williams" of business consulting, Dr. Gregerman is considered one of the most original thinkers in business today.

You'll also have opportunities to:

• Build relationships that will help you advance professionally and personally
• Learn the latest workplace trends and discuss key topics
• Make valuable career connections with fellow alumni
