PROGRAM DETAILS



Introduction

This seminar is designed to provide leaders and professionals with a set of transformational tools and techniques to help them maximise their own and their team’s creative potential. Its starting-point is self-discovery: participants will work on the inside first and then focus outwards to impact on the world of business.

The focus of the seminar will be on thinking in different ways. Participants should be prepared to move out of their comfort zone and experiment with new ways of creating and communicating an inspiring leadership vision.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:

  • Set out their personal leadership brand
  • Select appropriate techniques for self-discovery
  • Demonstrate innovative methods for harnessing others’ creative potential
  • Articulate a vision using multiple sensory representations
  • Communicate their vision in refreshing and engaging ways
  • Explore the outer limits of group creativity
  • Set out creative options for implementing change

 Target Audience

This seminar is designed for leaders and professionals who are responsible for driving company growth by creating or eliciting new ideas and paradigms. Alternatively, you may be stuck with your own ‘logical’ career journey and seeking an opportunity to explore beyond its boundaries.

It will also be of great benefit to anyone who wants to forge innovative approaches to communications, or to human resource and training managers searching for breakthrough ideas and tools they can use to harness the creativity in others within their organisation

 Training Methodology

This seminar will not rely on a series of lectures to tell you what you should be doing. Instead it uses a range of approaches to learning, including experiential group activities, individual visioning exercises and syndicate discussions, to allow you to see and feel for yourself the power of the creative mind. Formal inputs are used to introduce a limited amount of underpinning theory. A key part of the learning process is sharing the differing experiences participants bring, as well as experimenting with novel – and sometimes challenging – techniques.
