90 Minute promoting creativity and innovation Training session

What Is Creativity?

An act of creativity can be grand and inspiring, such as creating a beautiful painting or designing an innovative new product. But an idea need not be artistic or world-changing to count as creative. Life requires daily acts of ingenuity and novel workarounds; in this sense, almost everyone possesses some amount of creativity.

Research shows that creative thinking involves making new connections between different regions of the brain, which is accomplished by cultivating divergent thinking skills and deliberately exposing oneself to new experiences and to learning.

It is in everyone's interest to nurture creative impulses, regardless of one's day job. How can someone go about shaking up the way they think? Creativity is associated with many factors—including conducive environments, ideal collaborators, and personality traits. Finding the right combination of these is not always easy, but the outcomes are well worth it.
