Diana Kander Featured Serial Entrepreneur; Innovation Consultant; New York Times Bestselling Author

For All Company Meetings

Want an incredible opening keynote that makes participants more engaged in every session? Then teach them how to harness their curiosity!

Based on her book, The Curiosity Muscle, Diana's high-energy keynote shows us how we can level up our simple questions to get significantly better results and drive innovation. That includes the questions attendees are reflecting on throughout your event!

She helps participants understand that the longer they've been doing something, the more likely it is that their expertise has also created some blind spots. Blind spots that could be huge opportunities for growth. She demonstrates how we struggle with additive bias (looking to add more things to our plate to solve a problem), when taking something away would be the much more optimal solution. And she helps attendees understand how our natural desire to be right gets in the way of our learning and improvement.

Through hilarious case studies and interactive exercises, Diana will leave your audience excited to learn and open to changing how they see the world.

ROI & Key Outcomes:

• How to institutionalize curiosity, asking better questions to stay competitive and
  relevant to your customers

  trap"
