mirrors and windows”.

TEO’s presentation topic: Brands larger than life and the business leadership of tomorrow.
Overview:
“Creativity festivals like Cannes, Spikes, Dubai Linx or Eurobest stand for a major shift in brand communication. Advertising, as we
know it, became obsolete.
So what’s in trend, now? As you might imagine, many would say technology, innovation, social media or just all of them. And their
answers are correct. But the brightest would say: ~life itself~. And they would be damn right. The new big discovery – post
technology, post-modernism, but (fortunately) not post-mortem – is the beauty of Life. The presentation will analyze the evolution
of the creative ideas and their escape from the advertising bubble in the big city, among people and their stories. Advertising is not
anymore about life, is life itself, enjoyed to its fullest”.

ENLIGHTENING SPECIAL FEATURING
Robert Murray’s Latest Leadership Work
Book Launch in Romania

Meet Bob first hand and discover how to get where you want to go!
Talks, Q&A, insights and individual book signing.
Enlightening 2.0. brings international perspective through a business masterpiece that will enlighten
your vision and actions.
“Bob’s new book “It’s Already Inside: Nurturing Your Innate Leadership for Business and
Life Success” is more than a “How To” business book or even one that claims to reveal the secrets
of business leadership. The author simply tells his own story and the stories of people he has known
well who have become respected leaders. Each story is told with purpose and insight” – Book review
by Tyler R. Tichelaar, Ph. D and author of awarding winning “Narrow Lives”.
Here’s just one glimpse of the echo that this outstanding work triggered in the international business
community:
Don Wright, Ph.D.
CEO of British Columbia Institute of Technology
“This book is full of the wisdom needed to be an effective leader. Wisdom that reflects real life
lessons, many of them very hard ones.”

ENLIGHTENING SPECIAL FEATURING
Diana Baker, one of the most renowned pianists in the world,
will perform with Miha Pogačnik.
Diana plays the piano since she was six years old and she is from Australia.
She travelled and learned across the globe, moving from stage to stage, experience to experience,
earning international admiration and respect on her path. Diana is inspired in her work by Franz
Schubert’s quote: ”Some people come into our lives, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never the
same”.
The hardest lesson she had to learn:
"My first experience playing at the opera! I made a mistake and stopped, I stopped 100 people playing,
because I was leading the rehearsal. They all stopped and stared at me. It felt as though the world
stopped and fell on my head. The lesson: never ever stop“.
Haskins / American Record Guide:
“...she reveals a feather-like touch… Baker is without question up to the most dynamic pounding
passages, but she is very subtle also, finding huge contrasts in the gargantuan score… she adjusts her
playing accordingly, delivering the music with disarming charm and simplicity…”
