Transformational Thinking in the Workplace: Creative Leadership

Can you as a leader: Nurture and support your team to reach their full creative potential? 
Work to the strengths of team members? Change your environment to encourage innovation? Share leadership?  Make a difference as a leader?

Creative leadership encourages individuals to challenge the status quo, offer alternate viewpoints, raise questions and dare courageous honesty. Creative leadership dictates that the best individuals for the job take charge in their area of expertise.  It also guards the creative spirit.

Work collaboratively to solve a common leadership challenge using creative problem solving tools and process, improvisation and music to reach transformational thinking. Participants will discover how to:

  • Use their head and heart to tap into the abilities and spirit of each of their team members who will be encouraged to reach their full creative potential, resulting in increased innovation. 
  • Create an environment that encourages creativity.
  • Leverage their strengths and strategize their limitations to enhance their own leadership performance.
  • Address personnel challenges, in a way that ignites rather than extinguishes the creative spirit. 
  • Improve efficiency, productivity, problem solving skills, boost morale, and creatively lead as a better ways of doing business.
