Florian describes how he became interested in creativity through mind mapping, which triggered a journey ten years later to study for his Master\'s Degree in Buffalo, NY. He shares several examples of his work to support companies in Europe and Asia to be more creative and innovative. One success story involved helping engineers achieve a breakthrough by using the analogy of baking a cake to solve a plating problem on a jet engine.
