Mindshare brought yet another innovative event to the region with “The Art of Original Thinking,” a one-day event held at Fairmont The Palm Dubai on August 30th.
The exciting event was coordinated in appreciation of Mindshare’s most outstanding performers, who have consistently demonstrated their dedication and innovation in their work. Attended by senior team members and star performers from Mindshare MENA, “The Art of Original Thinking” brought together an impressive selection of high-profile figures that are revered for their abilities to think outside the box and garner immense success in a diverse array of professions.

Founder of Orcasci and Imaginatik Mark Turrell discussed how patterns of behavior form, an immensely valuable lesson for media and marketing experts to better understand the popularization of trends. Marketing expert and former JWT Global Creative Director Gordon Torr introduced “Managing Creative People,” a valuable explanation of how to bring the best out of your most creative team members.
Picstash CEO Niall Harbison gave advice on living memorably; similarly, entrepreneur Tom Oliver shared his best practices towards maximizing personal creativity for a more fulfilling life.
