PROFESSOR MAREK KASPERSKI & TONY BUZAN

Marek and Tony were close friends for many years, and they often travelled to Memory Championships around the world and spent time together in London. 

Tony taught Marek every aspect of Mind Mapping, Speed-Reading, and Memory. They often spent hours talking about all things related to intelligence and creativity. The photo below was taken in Tony’s house where he taught Professor Marek Kasperski.

Tony referred to the two of them as “peas in a pod”, as they often thought and said the same thing. When Tony was a guest at Professor Marek’s lecture in Adelaide, he drew a Mind Map, inserting a pod with two smiling peas inside. 

The friendship between Tony and Marek gives Marek a unique understanding of how and why Tony developed Mind Maps from its infancy to the Mind Maps we see today. The precious hours spent talking about Mind Mapping with Tony are now available in Marek’s training, something unique and special. The photograph on the right shows Marek being trained by Tony Buzan in his home.
