Every individual is creative, and all organizations need a variety of creative types: idea generators, promoters, designers, implementers, and evaluators.In this exciting workbook, Chic Thompson will teach you how to challenge the assumptions you hold that stifle your creativity, freeing you to discover your innate innovative abilities. You’ll learn how to recognize and reject «Killer Phrases» that destroy creativity, like «Let’s stick with what works» and «It’ll be more trouble than it’s worth.»
You’ll also learn about the four steps necessary to get from brainstorming to finished product: freedom, expression, creation, and action. Using Thompson’s exercises, you’ll flex your creative muscles.
