Listen to Daniel Pink deliver the Nancy Hanks Lecture on Arts & Public Policy April 11, 2008—Author Daniel Pink delivered the 21st Annual Nancy Hanks Lecture on Arts & Public Policy on March 31 at the John F. Kennedy for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC.
In this provocative lecture, Pink makes what he calls a “hard-headed case for arts education.” He explains how three powerful forces in the economy are making logical, linear, rule-based, “left-brain” abilities necessary in the workforce, but no longer sufficient. And he shows how these three forces—what he calls abundance, Asia, and automation—are making artistic, empathic, big picture, “right brain” abilities the most important abilities in just about every profession in industry.
