Tapping Your Natural Weirdness!©
Re-discovering Your Creative Potential for Fun & Profit
Aren't creative people just born that way? The answer is "Yes!
"
But, the good news is that everyone is born creative, including you.
Tests have proven that the younger we are, the better we score in divergent
thinking ability, and as we mature to adolescence and adulthood, our scores get lower and
lower. It isn't aging; it's conditioning. And, it can be overcome!
This program will describe how living in a structured world, operating
in "mental cruise control," and other factors contribute to our loss of creative
thinking ability. You will learn how to regain your "natural" creativity
by taking incremental steps to personal change.
In addition, you will learn the four phases of the creative process, and
in which role you excel and prefer. With that knowledge, you will be able to form
"whole brained innovation teams" in which all four phases can be successfully
performed. Creativity without refinement and implementation is nothing more than a
brainstorm.
After you learn how to overcome the barriers, and to tap your natural
weirdness, you will be introduced to some truly creative problem-solving techniques that
go well beyond brainstorming, such as:
Whatiffing
In Search of QWERTYUlOPs
Creative Dissatisfaction
The 2nd Right Answer
Breaking the Mold
The Idea Journal
...and others
Whether it's process improvement ideas, strategic planning,
cost-reduction initiatives, creative customer service, or any other "new
thinking" that's needed,, these tools and techniques will start you in the right
direction.
If you are ready to be challenged in your thinking, your attitude, and
your perception of the world, you are ready for this program.
