Tony Buzan’s First USA Tour in a Decade

Tony Buzan’s First USA Tour in a Decade

I recently discovered that Tony Buzan, the inventor of Mind Mapping, will be coming to the US next month to host a variety of exclusive talks, training events and accredited courses.  I found out about this tour from Kathleen Church, the Media Relations Liaison for ThinkBuzan, and she informed me that Tony will be conducting these workshops in Minneapolis, San Francisco, and New York from May 3rd to the 18th.    Not only does the content of the workshops look great, but given that this is Tony’s first US visit in over a decade this looks like an opportunity worth pursuing.  Here’s a brief excerpt from the training page and a copy of the official press release:

British born Tony Buzan has helped millions to unlock their creativity, enhance their memory skills and expand their thought processes. He invented Mind Maps in the 1970s and they are now used by over 250 million people worldwide. He works as a motivational speaker and business consultant for businesses and government organisations all over the world, including General Motors, Walt Disney, BBC, Microsoft, Intel, Boeing, HSBC, Friends of the Earth, Procter and Gamble, and British Airways. In 2008 Tony received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Creativity Association (ACA). The Englishman has authored or co-authored over 100 books on the brain, translated into 33 languages and published in over 150 countries.

The royal families of Bahrain and Liechtenstein and global media personalities and prominent world figures have benefited from using his techniques.
After a presentation by Tony at HSBC’s headquarters, Anne Ewing, the bank’s Head of Learning & Development ,  said that “he held the audience spellbound as he challenged, confronted and tested our collective assumptions about how adults learn.  His complete mastery of his subject shone through… He is an extraordinary teacher and communicator”.
Leon Sadler, vice president for professional services at FICO, described the true power of Tony’s process: “I’ve relied on Mind Maps in my work with the world’s premier technical knowledge-based organizations, including Accenture, IBM and now FICO, a leader in analytics and decision management. I have passed on my enthusiasm to my co-workers and kids, and enjoy watching a new generation of Mind Mappers develop.”
