Overview

Natalie Nixon-known as ""the creativity whisperer to the C-Suite"" and a top creativity and future of work keynote speaker, advisor, and strategist-teaches how to harness the power of everyday activities like daydreaming and casual conversations to stress less and produce more at work. Natalie Nixon helps corporate leaders achieve transformative business results by applying wonder and rigor to their work. In MOVE, THINK, REST, she reveals how the best organizations allow the personal and the professional to converge at strategic moments, which often come when we step away from our desks and phones. According to Nixon, it is this MTR framework-which allows for simple activities like going for a walk, daydreaming, engaging in more casual yet meaningful conversations, pondering questions about a challenge post-meeting-that is the best way to collectively revise, re-organize and re-energize our daily lives. Nixon's MTR framework (Movement, Thought, and Rest) will change the way you work. And it will do so without demanding that you overhaul your personality, adhere to a rigid protocol, or life-hack the liveliness out of your working hours. When you allow yourself to pause, unabashedly pay attention to your emotions and allow your intuition to guide you, then you achieve fluency, ease, and even greater productivity. MOVE, THINK, REST brings a unique perspective as a thought leader who's optimized her background in anthropology, fashion, design thinking, academia & dance.
