Description

‘I am not creative’. How often have you heard that?

The talk shows how people and organisations overlook their innate creative abilities, preferring to believe that creativity is the preserve of artistic or imaginary visionaries rather than something we can all access.

It shows how creativity is a broad, innate ability that can be developed and used to challenge assumptions, see new patterns, investigate, think and act differently, to bring solutions to problems and situations that will result in new and different outcomes. A skill that is highly valued in business.
