Course syllabus
01
Demystifying Creativity! Grounding What is Creativity?
Creativity is an essential skill and arguably one of the central focuses of what humans do. With the rapid change in society and business, creativity is innate in all people and can be nurtured, however, translating this to an organization that is creative poses its own challenges. We will build a foundation of creativity.
02
Creative Thinking and Finding Your Flow: Evidence for the Creative Person
The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times… The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile. We will begin that stretch of the mind.
03
Assessing Your Creative Environment: Building A Creative Support System
Being and expanding your creativity is a powerful keystone habit you can acquire. If done correctly, you will show up better in every area of your life -- every area! Creativity does not happen in a vacuum. It must be nurtured. We will build that environment so creativity can be cared for.
04
Assessing Your Creative Process: Building Your Creative Skills
Creativity is not a momentary spark of inspiration but a process that unfolds over time. It involves diligent execution, reflection, evaluation, and continuous effort. The hard work put into realizing creative ideas is just as crucial as the initial burst of inspiration. Creativity is hard work. You must practice.
05
Assessing Creative Products and Services: What Makes Then Unique
Creativity is not limited to unconventional or disorganized ideas. It encompasses a range of forms and can manifest in various disciplines. Creative products and services can be well-organized, logical, and refined. Embracing creativity allows for the exploration of different perspectives and the development of innovative solutions.
