Creativity & Innovation
“I’ve just had the greatest idea…”
“I’ll be the judge of that.”
A fantastic idea for a new product. A leap ahead in customer service quality. A way to eliminate double handling and wastage.
Do you expect, encourage and support ideas such as these? From within your own organisation?
The truth is, more often than not the breakthrough ideas that have shaped the leading organisations have come from within. After all, no-one knows your business as well as your people – so make the best use of them you can!
In Nexus Partners' Creation/Innovation™ workshops, we teach teams and individuals to use more than a dozen creative thinking tools. These tools can open the door to growth, as your people discover new opportunities and the solutions to their biggest problems.
That’s why we insist that participants come prepared to work on specific business challenges… it means you can realize immediate return on your training investment!
Creation – the Creative Thinking Toolkit
Reflection, Incubation, Brainstorming, Mindmapping, Exploratory Benchmarking, The Magic Toolbox, Cause and Effect Diagram, SCAMPER, Nominal Grouping, Cause and Effect Matrix, De Bono's Six Thinking Hats.
If you think that list sounds a little “outside of the square” – it is. But that’s because staying safely “inside the square” isn’t exactly creative!
Innovation – the Keys to Successful Innovation
Unfortunately, most great creative ideas get thrown out there, no-one attempts the catch, they struggle briefly to fly, and then fall limply to the office floor where they’re abandoned to wither and die.
The idea’s creator needs to learn how to adjust and tinker, shape the idea to fit the market (whether internal or external), then present it in a way that ignites interest and accelerates uptake.
An innovation is a great idea that’s been given wings, a full tank of fuel and an airbase. Our Creation/Innovation™ workshop gives your people the skills to pilot their ideas into the wild blue yonder – or more importantly, straight into your balance sheet!
