Great ideas only see the light of day when creative people and teams are able to get organized, harness the forces of community, and become better leaders of themselves and others. After years of research, Scott Belsky and his team at Behance have found a series of best practices common across some of the world's most productive creative people and teams. Scott is the author of the national bestselling book "Making Ideas Happen" (Penguin Books, April 2010) and, as Founder and CEO of Behance, oversees the largest online platform of creative professionals. In this session, Scott will share practical tips that you can use to push bold creative projects to completion.

Through his work at Behance, Scott has become an advocate for technology and community initiatives that empower the careers of creative professionals. He has consulted for leading media and Fortune 500 companies, including GE and Hewlett-Packard, and has traveled as far as the Kaospilots School in Aarhus, Denmark to talk about his findings. He has appeared in the Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek, and has shared Behance's research in segments on ABC News, MSNBC, and with the United States State Department. Scott was also included in Fast Company Magazine's list of "100 Most Creative People in Business." Scott has guest lectured at Cornell University, Harvard University, VCU Brand Center, and UC Berkeley among other institutions, and serves as a small business expert on American Express' Open Forum website.
