Dr. Angus Fletcher (PhD, Yale) is professor of story science at Ohio State’s Project Narrative.
Major Tom Gaines and Dr. Angus Fletcher spoke on how you can use narrative and creativity to help gain the initiative and maintain momentum throughout your endeavors.
Why be more creative?
Creativity is your brain's superpower to adapt to fast-changing, life-and-death environments, from overcoming emergent challenges to leveraging emergent opportunities.
It's what enabled our species to thrive in the chaotic and uncertain ecosystems of evolution by natural selection.
It makes us antifragile in situations where computer AI turns brittle, and it will allow you to outcompete and win in volatile, unstable domains.
