Brett School Madison Madison Elementary Freedom Freedom Elementary "This job shadow experience has made me more enthusiastic about my choice of a future career" "Daniel Pink claims that the nature of the workplace is changing yet again, and that power will soon shift to people who have strong right-brain qualities (that is, aesthetics, feeling, and creativity). According to Pink, the key to success lies in developing and cultivating six senses: design, story, symphony, empathy, play, and meaning. In fact, Pink compares the Conceptual Age to past periods of intense change, such as the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution. Can't get bigger than that." |
