Welby is the author of Creative Courage: Leveraging Imagination, Collaboration, and Innovation to Create Success Beyond Your Wildest Dreams. He asks: how can we create an innovative culture that’s more likely to answer the call of transformation? How do we leverage imagination to make our work more robust and resilient? And, how can such a culture help produce relevance, inside and outside of our organization? By sharing his unique story, Welby offers us a practical guide to gaining “the perspective, courage, and kick start you need to think differently about the things you do every day.”
Previously, Welby was Cirque du Soleil’s Director of Creation in the Images, Events, and Lifestyle division, where he worked with leading Hollywood producers, creators, and artists, like Jamie King, Billy Crystal, Alicia Keys, and Russell Simons. He played several leadership roles at Cirque du Soleil as Director of Strategic Relations, Arts, Circus, and Sports.
