An Innovation in Action Series
Description: Many think that creativity is some kind of magic but in truth we all possess creativity. The challenge is ‘how do we unleash it?’ Contrary to popular belief creativity has a framework although that framework is quite loose. Creativity needs an initial stimulant, but the results of creativity will be wide and diverse and need to be narrowed down to working solutions.
Learning Objectives:
· How Creativity is initiated
· Primary attributes of creative people
· How to develop creative attributes in yourself
