Creative Breakthroughs For Your Team

What do we mean by ‘creativity‘?

When we think of creativity we often think of innovation, and hence we think of companies such as GE, Microsoft, Apple or Sony, with its ‘Go Create’ ad campaign. Creativity isn’t always about innovation, however. Whilst not all of us are involved in innovation in the sense of thinking up new products, we all need to be creative almost every day.

In business, we may need to find a way to offer uninterrupted service to our customers when our IT systems are down. We might need to find an acceptable way around a policy in order to keep our project moving forward, or we may need to organise an exciting event on a very limited budget.

From Longing To Living

What are you doing? I mean it. What are you doing and why?

Are you just doing what you think will get you ahead in life? Out of your current stuck rut?
Everybody breathe…again, and deeper. Now one more time…

I used to hate it when therapists, coaches, yoga teachers etc. would do all these breathing exercises during my time with them. “What a waste” I used to think…can’t we just “Get on with things, I have a lot to do/discuss/process etc.”

The Creative Age

A quote from “The Flight of the Creative Class”, by Richard Florida states that “we must recognize the fact that every single human being is creative. We can no longer prosper and succeed by taking advantage of the creative energies of 30 or even 40 percent of our workforce, leaving the vast reservoir of the other 70 percent untapped…This effort will require the energies of all - business, government, universities, the civic sector, and especially the average American citizen, who is ultimately the key source from which the collective energy of our entire nation must be drawn.”

Taking Time And Making Choices For A Dynamic Creative Life

In my work as a creativity coach I talk with many, many people who want to be more creative, either as a way to deepen their spiritual practice of self nurturing or who have a specific dream that they long to manifest, like writing a book or forming a rock band.
