Clarke Ching - Corkscrew Thinking: Add 30 IQ points, in 90 minutes
Description changed:
We're delighted to be teaming up with our friends at TFoW who have organised for Clarke Ching to present "Corkscrew Thinking" online.
Clarke last spoke at LAE back in late 2016, shortly before he left our sunny shores for NZ. He was hugely influential in growing the Scottish agile community, leading Agile Scotland in it's early years.
Clarke authored The Bottleneck Rules (which was, just for a few days, the second best selling leadership book on amazon.com) and Rolling Rocks Downhill. He currently teaches IT leaders how to solve gnarly problems using Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints (ToC). https://www.clarkeching.com/

Corkscrew Thinking: Add 30 IQ points, in 90 minutes.
Want to learn the obscure thinking technique that Winston Churchill used to help win World War ONE?
That’s not a typo ... he called it “Corkscrew Thinking”.
The world’s #1 management thinker, Roger L Martin, calls it "Integrative Thinking" and says it is the ONE skill that differentiates the most successful leaders from the masses.
Eli Goldratt, the genius who created the Theory Of Constraints (ToC) said it was this thinking tool - which he called "evaporating clouds" - rather than his raw intelligence that enabled him to solve the gnarliest of problems, and create startlingly simple solutions, while other equally clever people remained stumped.
