Topic: "The future of business: how to benefit from the global shift to a networked society" HBR Poland Keynote: Futurist & Keynote Speaker Gerd Leonhard The Internet, or to be more precise, the mobile and social 'Internet 2.0' that has exploded in the past 2 years, is dramatically changing the way we find and are found, how we relate to our customers (and vice versa), and by extension how we buy and sell.

No matter the form of expression, the type of art, the style, the culture, every human being has this spark, this impulse to manifest beauty through some form of art or craft. Give a pencil or some pebbles to a young child, he/she will try to create something with it, and to make it as beautiful as possible according to his/her capacities and his/her cultural footprint.

Coaching de l'Intelligence collective
Comment l'intuition est-elle comprise par les chercheurs en neuropsychologie ? Les recherches des dernières années ont appuyé un modèle selon lequel le cerveau a deux systèmes pour recevoir et analyser les informations sensorielles, un système conscient et un système inconscient . Dans le système inconscient, celui des connaissances tacites, les impressions sensorielles sont comparées aux images précédemment encodées en mémoire.We’ve seen our fair share of Pinterest clones in the past month, from the most blatant copycat sites that make no effort to disguise what they’re doing, to the sites that are aiming for an even more niche audience than Pinterest itself.
