After receiving a bachelors degree in business from the University of San Diego, Erik endured eight years at a corporate firm. With the dot-com bubble resulting in him being made redundant, Wahl decided to invest his energy into art and he found his own company at the age of 30. Beginning his journey as a motivational speaker and graffiti artist, Wahl initially sold his paintings to buyers but eventually began auctioning them for charities.
His presentation, entitled The Art of Vision has attracted many schools, universities, conferences and large companies who have witnessed his high-energy on-stage performances which demonstrate both his knowledge as a business strategist and graffiti artist. With some of his career highlights including being featured in a TED presentation and presenting at the Entrepreneur’s Growth Conference in New Orleans, Wahl has established himself as a highly sought after business motivational speaker.

The book is about using creativity to achieve better performance as well as “unleashing and unlocking the mind to come up with boundless, innovative solutions,” an idea that is explored within his keynotes speeches.
