In total Jonathan has spent 19 years doing these things with education and training organisations, businesses, entrepreneurs, schools and space professionals. He also spends up to 90 mins every day researching future trends and learning new things himself so he can distill this with his experience as a visual story-teller, planner, teacher, and writer so that communities of learners world-wide can benefit.
