Event Description
Simple, fun, practical ways to boost your powers of creative thinking, in a lively talk suitable for everyone with an interest in creativity and innovation.
We’re all born with creativity, and yet society, the workplace and education teach us to think and act in ways that can limit our creative thinking. Because they all want us to conform. In this talk, you will reconnect with that innate skill and learn how you can utilise it in every aspect of your life. And come away more creative. Guaranteed.
It doesn’t matter who you are, how old you are, or what you do for a living, you will discover a capability for creativity that you didn’t know you had. Creativity is so much more than creative artistry, it’s the now most sought-after skill in business today.
I will take you through the nine key behaviours I detailed in my best-selling book The Creative Nudge that will help you to embrace your creativity, together with a selection of nudges to help you embed them into your day, as well as the sociological and biological reasons why they’ve been inhibited.
