Michael 'Muxy' Muxworthy has extensive experience in advertising, media, marketing, auction, and professional skills training.Michael’s interests include exploring Australia’s amazing coastline, coral reefs, and pristine beaches, sailing, snow skiing, techno music, and alien conspiracy theories (not necessarily in that order, ha, ha).Michael co-resides in Melbourne and Brisbane, Australia. Muxy’s first encounter with lateral thinking was working in the advertising industry in 1990. The creative process, he discovered, is not an endless flow of ‘natural’ creativity. The creative process can be inspired through the use of simple tools though … lateral thinking tools.In 1994, Michael attended his first lateral thinking training with Edward de Bono. He was recognized from a crowd of around 2,000 to be ‘attuned’ to the creative processes on display and was invited backstage to meet de Bono personally. That’s how Michael’s passion began and it continues to this day, constantly honing his skills to a fine art that is prominently displayed in his writing.‘If there was a way of doing things that all experts agreed upon, you could be sure of one thing from Michael . . . he would be doing something completely different.’An impassioned free-market economist, Michael strongly advocates for minimalist government.‘Let the market rule, but with a tempered safety net that reflects our evolved humanity’.Michael’s interest in the alien question came about when his creative investigative skills were summoned to debunk an unexplained UFO sighting. There are a lot of whackos amongst those that report sightings, encounters, abductions, probes, and (believe it or not) much worse. Without exception, their testimonies crumble under the weight of extended creative probing . . . except on the rarest of occasions.Michael’s unique author brand proposition ‘Disruptive creativity in the fields of creative thinking skills training, science, philosophy, and science-fiction’ is in step with past successes to differentiate well apart from any competitive or mainstream thought activity,Michael Muxworthy is a passionate speaker on all subjects alien, politics, marketing, and creative and lateral thinking. He will take the podium at every opportunity . . . unfortunately, whether invited or NOT!!Read more about this authorRead less about this author
