Most businesses believe creativity is something only a few people at the top are good at.
Ben Hanlin used to think the same. That “being creative” was a talent some people were simply born with.
But he was wrong.
As host of the What’s The Trick? podcast, Ben has spent years interviewing some of the world’s most creative people to understand how they really think. What he discovered changed everything:
Creativity isn’t talent. It’s a process.
Having studied everyone from authors and comedians to music producers, entrepreneurs and founders, and combining those lessons with his own journey from “average kid” to creating impossible experiences for global audiences on stage and screen, Ben has uncovered the mindsets, frameworks and behaviours that repeatedly turn ideas into reality.
In this high-energy keynote, Ben shows your people how to create the impossible. His practical, actionable approach helps them think differently, generate better ideas, challenge assumptions and solve problems more creatively.
Not just the people at the top. Anyone can create the impossible.
