"Creativity at work is rapidly becoming one of the most important and in-demand skills"
The World Economic Forum
It all begins with a creative mindset. With a desire to rework and invent, problem solving becomes second nature. Nothing will be impossible and everything is an opportunity to explore.
With the right mental attitudes and thinking skills, you will learn how to see challenges as opportunities, generate creative ideas and determine how to turn ideas into action.
These creative mindset principles centre around our own invention, the 7 Creatures of Habit®.
The Creatures represent certain fixed patterns in the way we are conditioned to think. Recognising and overcoming each Creature provides a lens through which to challenge existing associations and norms, opening up breakthrough ideas, choices and opportunities.
Ever felt stuck and lacking inspiration?Perhaps you’ve had a case of the famous ‘not seeing the wood for the trees’? This is Routine in action.
Have you felt that you could achieve a better result but should stick with what is expected in case it doesn’t go down well? This is Follower’s influence.
Are you pleased when you quickly come up with a solution and then become less inclined to seek alternatives? This is Obvious stifling your imagination.
Often get moments where you feel deep down something could be better but instead you just knuckle down and get on with it? That’s Obedience taking control.
How do you feel when someone suggests your way of doing things needs to change or your existing ideas are not good enough? It can be pretty deflating. Protection is out to avoid these feelings.
Ever found yourself holding back a question or idea because you are worried it could get shot down? Does creativity sometimes seem daunting? This is Judgement at work.
Beware - there's one more Creature of Habit to discover that can be more damaging than them all. This is Gremlin.
