HBDI® Think About Creative Thinking:
By participating in the ThinkAbout Creative Thinking Workshop, participants will uncover their creative potential, generate valuable new ideas, build the innovative mindsets to transform their organization, create a toolbox of creative thinking tools and techniques. The participants will also learn to select the right "power tool" for a challenge or issue at hand, and use Whole Brain ® Thinking to solve their own challenges and issues. They will be trained to create new ideas that are unique and novel.
HBDI® Think About Creative Thinking is a group learning program, built on the foundation of Whole Brain® Thinking.
This program will give you and your team the Whole Brain® skills, tools, and techniques to contribute to the creative output, no matter what their function or role is, and get buy-in for new and different ideas.
By the end of the session participants will be able to: Define what it means to be creative using all four quadrants of the Whole Brain® Model, discover the ways in which they are creative, and identify ways to expand their creative thinking.
There are three learning objectives:
• Defining what it means to be creative from all four quadrants of the Whole Brain® Model.
• Discovering the ways in which you are creative.
• Identifying ways to expand your creative thinking.
