Procrastination is the key to problem solving | Andrea Jackson | TEDxTownsville

Few would say that procrastination can enhance productivity yet Andrea asks what if that belief is undermining our ability to solve problems, to be more innovative and improve outcomes? Andrea describes how we need to indulge in productive procrastination to get better results. Andrea has enjoyed a diverse business and senior management career. She has owned and operated small businesses, worked as a Project Director with Lend Lease and held economic and business development roles with non-government organisations. She is currently a business adviser with AiGroup and a creative strategist. Andrea is on a mission to help small businesses become more innovative. She is fascinated by neuroscience, creativity and all things innovative. Andrea spends much of her spare time researching her favourite topics to better understand how creative insights happen and how we can foster a thriving, innovative small business culture.
