Speaker Olivier BERUT

Oliver Bérut studied Mathematics (Ecole Centrale de Paris) & Creativity at Buffalo, N.Y. when he was 20 years old. He has since also trained in psychology, specialising in the Ericksonian Hypnosis. Today, aged 45, Olivier spends his life between:

- Research and teaching creativity (his latest book : ‘Season's paths', on sale in France since June 2011): Olivier is an Associate professor in several top schools and universities (ICAM, HEC Paris)

- Creativity: author, composer and performer, Olivier is currently working on his 5th album. He performs regularly (only in French…!)

- Council: Olivier is the chairman and founder of ‘Katalyz', a council company designed for directors and managers.

Convinced that Mankind is a creator of possibilities and that our world requires us to work on its improvement, Olivier has developed several creative methods. His international and cultural Chinese experience has served as a base for the latest method to be shared in the States, in China and … in Europe !

Last but not least, Olivier has been working for over 20 years in children's palliative cancer care.
