Creative Thinking

Research from IBM, RMIT and other global sources shows that CEOs and executives believe creativity is a skill to reach innovative and unique change within the company. Unfortunately, other research confirms that many professionals don’t believe they are creative, and even if they were, they wouldn’t be able to apply their creativity to problems in the workplace.

This workshop is designed to collectively discover the creative side of the participants through active creative thinking exercises. It will also tackle the definitions and principles of strategic problem solving, the different ways people think creatively, and common techniques for generating ideas in different settings. We believe that it’s time we shift from the negative into the positive through shifting perspectives and imagining alternative futures.
