Rediscover your creative spark
Have you ever found yourself in a meeting where your boss suddenly calls for more creativity?
You glance around the room, noting stern faces in grey suits, each person hesitating, waiting for someone to speak. A single feeling dominates the atmosphere: the fear of the inevitable—the courage to accept being seen as ridiculous.
Internally, you might be thinking: “What the heck? My entire career has revolved around being serious, professional, reliable, organized, streamlined, politically correct and structured. Now, I’m expected to be creative? Isn’t that reserved for artists, comedians, musicians or marketers, not me?”
Yet studies reveal that creativity is one of the most sought-after skills in today’s business landscape. In an era where AI threatens to take over many streamlined jobs, human creativity—alongside strong communication skills—becomes our competitive edge, distinguishing us, our companies, and our leaders.
Dr. George Land, in his enlightening TEDx talk (check it out here: https://lnkd.in/ex7KHFMa ), emphasizes that we are all born with creativity and explains how this innate skill gradually diminishes over time, leaving us feeling confined within rigid boundaries while life around us remains vibrant, colorful, and full of possibilities.
The challenge lies in rediscovering and reactivating our creativity.
This journey requires boldness, courage, and the right tools and support.
It can be done! I did it.
It was tough. It was invigorating. It was scary. It was liberating.
Should I have approached certain things differently? Yes, for sure!
What are my so-called mistakes worth? They are an invaluable asset—experience to be shared.
Today, I firmly believe that everything we do, if we want to stand out, starts with creativity.
In my workshops, I’m passionate about sharing my journey and the essential tools I’ve discovered to help participants uncover and embrace their true potential.
