The element - new book by Sir Ken Robinson available

Just got my pre-order shipment notice for The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything from Amazon.

Check out: http://www.theelementbook.com/ for reviews and an excerpt.

I first encountered Sir Ken Robinson on the ted.com website. His video is worth watching ... Why don't we get the best out of people? Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers.

Check out ted.com for other interesting videos. You can download them to your computer or iTunes (audio or video).
