Item Description

Bernie Roth is the Rodney H. Adams Professor of Engineering and the co-founder of the Stanford D. School. In his book, The Achievement Habit: Stop Wishing, Start Doing, and Take Command of Your Life, he introduces the power of design thinking to help you achieve goals you never thought possible. Achievement can be learned. Its a muscle, and once you learn how to flex it, you'll be able to meet life's challenges and fulfill your goals, Bernie contends.

In The Achievement Habit, Roth applies the remarkable insights that stem from design thinking previously used to solve large scale projects to help us realize the power for positive change we all have within us.

Roth leads us through a series of discussions, stories, recommendations, and exercises designed to help us create a different experience in our lives. He shares invaluable insights we can use to gain confidence to do what we've always wanted and overcome obstacles that hamper us from reaching our potential, including:

-Don't try DO

-Excuses are self-defeating

-Believe you are a doer and achiever and you'll become one

-Build resiliency by reinforcing what you do rather than what you accomplish

-Learn to ignore distractions that prevent you from achieving your goals

-Become open to learning from your own experience and from those around you

-And more

The conversation will be moderated by Kim Saxe, Nueva's I-Lab Director.
