About the Master Class:

We need to innovate and we are all being told to “do more with less”…

If this were easy, everyone would be excelling at it. In fact, most of us are held back in our creative efforts by our own thinking; in learning to be efficient, we have lost our innovative agility and unlearnt how to creatively harness the resources we have at hand.

This masterclass will explore what is holding us back, the value of inside-the-box thinking and the power of constraints and will give you a methodology that combines creativity with rigour and helps you generate counter-intuitive, feasible and valuable ideas – using what you have.

This will shift your thinking about creativity and innovation.

You will learn:

To identify a cognitive bias that inhibits creative thinking and tools to bust this when you need to innovate;
How to thrive with creative constraints;
That creative agility is a skill that can be re-learnt.
To recognize patterns in innovation that can be harnessed “on demand”;
To be agile in the creative process to enable you to work from form to function – rather than function to form – when this makes most sense;
A resourceful way to think differently.
A toolbox for intrapreneurs who want to expend less energy in their efforts to drive change.
