Dr. Ed Selby delivers a simple motivational message: "We are all creative." He has spent his professional life helping people understand and maximize their unique creative potential. He will do the same for your group using a practical mix of humor, insight and enthusiasm. An Associate with the Center for Creative Learning, a Fellow with the Creative Research Unit (CRU) and an Adjunct Professor with Fordham University's Graduate School of Education, his interests include learning styles, talent development and creative problem solving.
I hired Ed Selby to be the keynote speaker for a regional conference for social science professors. Dr. Selby was able to captivate the audience by taking very technical information and making it " user friendly". His enchanting storytelling ability made it possible for individuals from a variety of disciplines to appreciate the information presented. I would highly recommend him for any group at any age.
