Lior Zoref’s Background
WE are smarter than ME – innovation and leadership with the power of collective intelligence.
Dr. Zoref is a researcher, advisor, TED speaker and author of the best-selling book, Mindsharing: The Art of Crowdsourcing Everything. His speech at the TED 2012 Conference in Long Beach, California, was widely-recognized as a conference favorite. He received a standing ovation for the out-of-the-box, insightful and hilarious presentation, which The New Yorker dubbed “delightful.” In addition to bringing an ox live on stage, He used stories of crowd-sourcing in action—including a poll of the audience—to illustrate its power.

It looks at why few of us come close to using the full potential of our online networks and how to use “mind sharing” in practical and proven ways—including looking at how a manager used LinkedIn to create a year’s worth of market research in less than a day. Celebrated as “a genius who is also an ordinary guy.”
