Gideon King is an internationally recognised expert in Mind Mapping, having founded NMS Global, producer of NovaMind, the leading Mind Mapping program for Apple Mac computers for over 5 years. NovaMind is also now available for Windows and is rapidly taking a leading position in the Windows Mind Mapping market.
NovaMind became the first Mind Mapping program in which it is possible to create Mind Maps that adhere to all the laws of Mind Mapping. Gideon has invented many innovations for Mind Mapping software, such as FlexiBranches®, the Suggesterator® and rainbow coloring.
Gideon has written the popular book "Teacher's guide to Mind Mapping", which goes into detail about the research, theory, and practical use of Mind Mapping in primary, secondary, tertiary and business education.
More recently he has released his second book: "Business Guide to Mind Mapping", which covers everything you need to know about using Mind Mapping in a business environment.
He has used Mind Mapping to design his business visions, marketing plans, market positioning, and many other aspects of his businesses. Gideon has studied with many of the top leaders in business and personal development, such as Tony Robbins, Chris Howard, Jay Abraham, Brad Sugars, Brian Tracy, Perry Marshall, Yanik Silver, Mark Victor Hansen, Jeff Walker, Don Crowther and many others. He has applied many of the lessons to his own businesses, which have grown massively as a result. That growth continues to inncrease as he continues to assimilate and extend these methodologies into his own unique master plan for business growth.
An avid student and lifelong learner, Gideon is a qualified Civil Engineer, has a BSC in Computer Science, is an NLP Master Practitioner, as well as having read over 1,000 books on personal and business growth, and attended many seminars etc.
Taking the lessons he learned from these studies, as well as building his business interests, he also faced up to all the areas of his life that were not working and totally redesigned all aspects of his life, including losing 25kg (55lb) of weight, and significantly improving his physical fitness, getting out of a long term relationship, and breaking free from limitations that were holding him back. Travelled the world (over 40 countries), meeting many internationally recognized business leaders, educators, and personal development gurus.
He is writing a series of books with the working title of "Design Yourself: Invent Your Future", in order to take the many lessons he has learned and codify them into easy lessons that will catapult your life to the levels you want.
Gideon is passionate about sharing the powerful tools he has developed in all these areas with as many people as he can, and plans to accomplish that through his books, NovaMind, and whatever other media and tools are effective.
