About Workshop
Do you feel monotonous doing the day to day activities at work and
in your personal life in the conventional way? Do you get frustrated
at not being able to find the best path to reach your goals you have
been dreaming of all along, or those that your employer has set for you?
Do you find yourself ignored, your voice unheard or your work being
overlooked? Do you want to help someone learn to face and
overcome challenges?
...if yes, it is time for some Creativity!
What is it creativity...
Gone are the days when people would prefer normal ways to accomplish work, following traditional methods to reach conventionally set goals. We are living on an era when people are rewarded and recognised for generating new ideas for reaching their goals, extending the older thinking to get a new one or even thinking beyond the traditional concepts of goals in their respective areas.
It is the era of creativity! Creativity is the ability to come up with new and different ideas on a subject by breaking down and rearranging what we know and have learnt on the subject.
People in business come up with new problems everyday in almost all areas of the business.
People therefore do not have tried and tested techniques to approach these problems.
Sometimes even new ways are necessary to address problems which are occurring repeatedly.
Also business concepts such as designing, advertising, photography, etc have only one way to be successful, that is, creativity.
How will this workshop help you...
Creativity is a competency that can be studied and developed. The basic laws that govern
the generation of new ideas have now been discovered. Researches have been carried out in laboratories ever since 1970s on developing creative thinking in human mind. Being creative is all about mastering certain core skills such as brainstorming for new ideas and capturing them, initiating changes for future by breaking rules, broadening skills and knowledge, etc
that this workshop brings in for its participants. By means of some jumpstarting, fun-to-do
exercises and introducing several tips and techniques this workshop will bring the creative
potential among people to the surface and therefore enhancing their creative thinking process.
