“What Is Creative Thinking in the Workplace? And How Does It Fuel Innovation and Problem Solving?” (9-12-25).

John Spence:
“Why Your Company’s Survival Depends on a Culture of Learning” (8-11-25).
“There is more high-quality information available for free today than at any point in human history. YouTube has world-class tutorials. Harvard, MIT, and Stanford offer open courses. Podcasts, webinars, and articles from leading thinkers are available to anyone. None of it requires a budget line, but it does require an investment of time.”
