Time 2.0 - Applying Design Thinking to the Human Experience of Time.
Time, as we experience it, is not linear, yet why do we pretend that it is? Our days and our time are filled with experiences and memories, some stored and retained and some not. What creates a memorable memory? What is the nature of the relationship between memory and time perception? How do we measure the true value of our time? In this mind-bending session, John K. Coyle will apply creative deconstruction to what we think we know about time and you will learn how to slow, stop and reverse the perceived acceleration of time most adults feel and experience the endless summers of youth again.

“John was highly recommended to me by the founders of the IDEO design firm (David and Tom Kelley) and, magically, within 24 hours after the introduction he was at my doorstep in southern Baja (Mexico) and this is where we were starting our Modern Elder Academy. One year later, John did a phenomenal job co-leading (with me) our very first workshop cohort... John offers an unusually wide array of skills as a speaking and design thinking expert: part-personal story, part-research geek, part-experiential. On a personal side, John was a joy to co-lead with. He's very organized, friendly, open to suggestions, and a lot of fun... Lastly, he's an exceptionally dynamic speaker the kind who rivets an audience in such a way that they lose track of time.”
