Unlocking Creativity
Inspiring you and your organisation think and work more creatively

Organisations and individuals must encourage and promote creative thinking and innovation in order to be successful. In his book “A Whole New Mind”, Daniel Pink suggests that the 21st century is the Conceptual Age, where successful individuals and organisations will be those who think creatively, generate new ideas and concepts, and innovate effectively.
 
Research has shown that history’s greatest thinkers, from Leonardo Da Vinci to Walt Disney, and from Steve Jobs to Charles Darwin, all used strategies which enabled them to generate new and brilliant ideas and solutions by thinking differently.
 
This workshop will introduce some of these strategies and help you change the way you look at and think about issues. It will not only help you to unlock your own creativity, but it will give you tools to promote creative thinking and creative working in your team or organisation. You’ll learn

  • What creativity is and where it comes from
  • Why creativity is important for you and your company
  • How the mind works and how it can be persuaded to work more creatively
  • How to create the conditions for creativity to thrive in your company
  • How to use a range of simple but effective creative thinking techniques 
  • How to increase your own personal creativity and that of your company
