On Monday and Tuesday, I will be live tweeting from COCAbiz’s Business Creativity Conference 2011 “Play @ Work.” COCAbiz is the newly formed business training division of St. Louis’ Center of Creative Arts (COCA). Its mission is “to build a more creative, engaged and effective workforce by delivering innovative classes, workshops and events that pair authentic arts teaching and business facilitation to deliver real results.”
Throughout the two-day conference, I’ll hear from nationally know thought leaders including authors Kevin Carroll, Dan Roam, and Peter Sims, and IDEO’s Iain Roberts. I’ll also participate in breakout sessions led by local innovators about topics such as collaboration, brainstorming, putting innovation to work and storytelling. And, I’ll take part in a lunchtime roundtable called “Innovation at Work,” hosted by FH Innovation’s own Kathie Thomas.
I hope you’ll follow along @ssusman or @FHInnovation, #cocabiz. We look forward to sharing our learnings with you!
