Brett Wilson of CBC Dragons’ Den fame will be speaking at Humber!

The Humber Centre for Entrepreneurship (CfE) with support from IGNITE are proud to present Brett Wilson – The Lost Art of Critical Thinking.

Date Monday, February 11, 2019
Time 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Location Lakeshore Campus, G Commons

Full details and registration: humbercfe.eventbrite.ca (spaces are limited!)

Brett will share stories about his success, mistakes, and how he found a work/life balance to prove that it is in fact possible to succeed in business (and life) without losing principles.

Through demonstrating that “words have meaning,” Brett will share his frustration with our frequent lack of critical thinking over key issues facing Canada. As a celebrated Dragon Emeritus, Brett will also share stories from behind the scenes at CBC and lessons learned from his life as an entrepreneur.

He is passionate about explaining why studying marketing, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy are, for him, the essence of life empowerment.

*The first 75 registrants can receive a free copy of Brett Wilson's book, Redefining Success.
