Please join us on Wednesday July 9th as we welcome Dan Pink , author of the new book, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko . It is America’s first business book done in the Japanese comic format known as manga – and the last career guide you’ll ever need. About The Speaker: Daniel H. Pink is the New York Times bestselling author of A WHOLE NEW MIND and FREE AGENT NATION. He lectures to corporations, associations, and universities around the world on economic transformation and the changing world of work. In 2007, he won a Japan Society Media Fellowship that took him to Tokyo to study the manga industry. |
Dan will be talking and sharing lessons that most of us were never taught as we made our way through the workforce. He shares career advice that so many of us are lacking and causes us to be stuck in a job or career that so many of us dislike. You will also have a chance to engage in a Q&A with Dan.
