Apply UofC rigor to looking at art. This tour is NOT a survey of art history, rather, it uses art as a vehicle for changing our way of seeing so we can be better business leaders.
Event Details
Learn new ways of looking at art. Warren Buffet believes knowing more about the world enables him to make better investment decisions. Art challenges us to view the world in novel ways and shift our perception of reality.

- Tips on how to reflect and respond rather than react to bad events.
- Techniques on using art for meditation and stress reduction
- Tips on tapping into the creative process for better business decision making.
- New memories with kids and grandkids!
