Klappentext "Inspired by the graphic image above I find the notion of "art as a political instrument" of particular importance at this time. It is of great and significant value that we are now finally experiencing a time of inclusion, collaboration, and empowerment. We have the technology available to inform us, the cultural diversities globally to inspire us, and the social movements being put in place to acknowledge the measurable value of everyone's contribution. These shifts are not only welcome but are necessary to thrive in what has become a brand new world order. Art has long inspired the masses both politically and through religion, more recently by way of street artists. Not only is that phenomenon socially acceptable, it moves civilization forward. We learn, we grow, we share our cultural heritage and racial differences for the purpose of good. It offers a view to the world through a new less myopic lens. I am often reminded how very fortunate we are to be here now experiencing the constant and innovative shifts, a direct result of the technology revolution. There will be so many more to come and with them changing opportunities for success. Total Rethink for me is a movement to inspire in business and within our social climate the opportunities for all to adapt to the changing world economy and to thrive within the new and ever-changing climate of business. I am by nature two things: curious and optimistic. I find they are essential for mining great ideas and finding my way to interesting people. Business opportunities are everywhere as are compelling stories of talented entrepreneurs and artists moving the cultural agenda forward." -David McCourt Inclusion, Collaboration, Empowerment = ICE Total Rethink Zusammenfassung Rethink your way to a better lifeIn business! and in life! everything is changing fast! apart from how we behave.
