The importance of creativity can’t be underestimated. Businesses that harness their people’s innate creativity are often the most successful. Whether that’s quickly adjusting to new conditions in the short-term or charting vivid and achievable long term goals. Or navigating the complexity of maintaining a creative and collaborative culture in a hybrid online and offline environment.
Creativity is complex. But when you add team dynamics, it’s critical to take a strategic approach – because every problem and every team is unique. This course focuses on a few key areas. We highlight the importance of clearly defined problems to present to the team – to ensure a focused output. We give you tools and approaches for idea generation (both personal and group-based) to reliably generate appropriate options. And finally, we offer tips, tricks and insights from some of the best team coordinators on managing conflict, motivation, team energy online and IRL, and how to turn ideas into an action plan.
