NOE: This program is not for the novice CPS practitioner. Having some experience using Creative Problem Solving will be extremely useful.
Organizations are best positioned to innovate when leaders and teams learn how to cultivate and maximize their diversity of thinking, which requires insight into individual creative motivation and expression. But problem solving is not linear. Neither is teamwork. And the process for each is fraught with stress, tension, and conflict. Why is it so hard for teams to collaborate to breakthrough?
This immersive, 3-day session explores the mindset, skillset, and toolsets of creative thinking that few teams have mastered. We will dive deep into cutting edge research on the linkage between thinking style and behavioral styles. You will also learn how your team’s natural creative rhythm and flow can be enhanced by properly flexing communication styles during the collaborative process. You will come away with a richer understanding of your creative preferences and those of your team, and how those preferences influence or undermine team members’ communication styles. Your team’s success in mastering these models ultimately depends on how willingly your team adapts to the extreme demands of collaborative exploration.
