Megan Henshall, the Global Events Strategic Solutions Lead at Google, projects an entirely different overview of how a large organization like Google can also be focused on exploring and reimagining and creating a human-centered multi-modal approach to event experiences and not just on the company's bottom line.  Yanique's conversation with Megan, in this episode, explores how events can drive businesses and communities to have a positive impact on the world.  Her involvement with Google Xi (short for Experience Institute), a community initiative to help redesign audience experiences at Google, in the events industry, helps in the creation of an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere in corporate events. Highlights: 00:30  What metrics does a large corporation like Google use to evaluate the success and impact of an event? 05:28  How does Megan incorporate the narrative elements into event design and execution? (...What role does storytelling play in event planning?) 08:47  What are the key elements necessary to create inclusivity and a welcoming environment in corporate events? 14:48  To enhance the human centric event experience, what are some of the technologies incorporated in the execution of events? 21:46  With regards to visual icons that communicate to people about the event experience and options, are there alternate options where people can get similar information? 24:56  In a Metaverse situation, how is the need for creativity, innovation, time and money balanced? 29:49  What does innovation really  look like, is it something new all the time? 34:42  Google's approach to diversity and inclusion in the event industry. 40:15  What is that one event that every event professional should attend at least once?  42:27  Closing  RESOURCES MENTIONED: NOWHERE, a metaverse company - https://www.nowhere.io/ CONNECT WITH MEGAN HENSHALL: LinkedIn CONNECT WITH YANIQUE DACOSTA: Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://eventist365.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YKMD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Us on Social Media: Host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MissYaniDoesStuff /facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@YaniDoesStuff / Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@yanidoesstuff / Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YDaCosta / LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Graphic Design Firm for Corporate Events ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@TheYKMD / Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@theYKMD / Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@theykmd / Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YKMD Visual Communication / LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠

If you want to learn and grow, do you have to go back to school and get a Master's Degree? Victor Saad designed his own Master's by completing 12 projects in 12 months. He called it The Leap Year Project and his experiences culminated with staging his own graduation at a local TEDx and publishing a book of stories focused on the power of learning through risk. He later launched Experience Institute, a program for college students and career professionals to learn and grow through short-term, real-world experiences. In 2015, he was inducted into Forbes' 30 Under 30 in the field of education. In 2017 he joined the team at Stanford's School of Engineering as a Lecturer in Design. This week he joins The Creative Muscle to talk about how to expand your comfort zone, how to keep a learner's mindset, and how to decide what to do next.

Victor Saad, my guest on this episode #020 of Process, is taking higher education by storm. His creative journey started when he chose to design his own 12-month Master’s program instead of applying to an existing school, wrote a book about his experiences and then created an organization that provides a similar learning experience to students every year, called Experience Institute, which is his main project nowadays. He was even named on Forbes 30 under 30 list for his work in education. I’m excited to talk to Victor about what it’s like to disrupt (and improve) higher education and what his big goals are for the future.

Victor Saad believes there’s something wrong with conventional higher education. A few years ago, Victor took a leap and wasn’t sure where he would land. He quit his job and set out to learn about how organizations can focus on people and flourish. Now a few years later, Victor leads an experiential learning community called Experience Institute where he helps students create their own higher education with the help of some of the most innovative companies and organizations in the world.

Victor Saad decided to take his education into his own hands and handcraft a unique personal educational experience called the “Leap Year Project.” He is now crystallizing his vision for reinventing education by building a new school called the Experience Institute. In this episode of A Congruent Life, Victor discusses his thoughts about customized experiential […] The post ACL 054: Victor Saad appeared first on A Congruent Life.
