Andre Walton
Business and Career Coach
At the core André is an inventor, somewhat of an anarchist (sorry, disruptor!), and a traveler. His belief in his inventions motivated him into entrepreneurship which funded travel and experiences almost beyond belief. When André sold his businesses, he continued his passion for traveling and absorbing foreign cultures - living and working in seven different countries. He then ‘went back to school’ and completed a Ph.
D. in Social Psychology with a focus on “creativity in an organizational context”.
In 2011 André published Embracing the New Era (ISBN-10: 1452848289 ISBN-13 : 978-1452848280) which examines creativity from a new perspective and explains many anomalies of creativity from why brainstorming doesn’t work to why creatives have a higher rate of psychological problems compared to others. André is now a life and executive/business coach, lives in Reno and plays lots of music – jazz flute, saxophone, piano and guitar. He is also a published photographer, meditator, and enthusiastic grandfather of three. As well as writing dozens of social scientific papers and book chapters, André was a journalist for many years in the U.
