Todd Henry, founder of Accidental Creative, a company that helps creative people and teams be prolific, brilliant and healthy, will speak at the fourth annual Leadership Breakfast on Aug. 20 at 7:30 a.m. at the NKU METS Center in Erlanger. Henry is the author of The Accidental Creative and Die Empty. This will be the Northern Kentucky premiere of Henry’s newest book, Louder than Words.
According to Henry, the key to standing apart from the noise is to find your unique voice. Those who identify and develop their voices will gain more attention and wield more influence. But first they have to identify what they truly stand for, develop a compelling vision, and become masters of expressing their ideas in whatever media they choose.
Henry offers strategies, exercises, and true stories that illustrate the five attributes of resonant work:
· Authenticity: Uncover the narratives that are at the core of your personal and professional identity.
· Uniqueness: Identify what makes your work distinct from that of others, and learn to creatively package and present your message.
· Consonance: Cultivate internal consistency and harmony in your work.
· Empathy: Listen to your audience’s aspirations and struggles to make your message more compelling.
· Timing: Learn how to coordinate your work with ideas that already have cultural momentum.
Hosted by Leadership Northern Kentucky Alumni, this event is open to the public. The cost of the event is $30 before Aug. 1 and increases to $40 thereafter. The purchase price includes a copy of Henry’s book Louder than Words.
