OVERVIEW
HAVE YOU ever solved ONE problem only to realise you created a BIGGER ONE?
HAVE YOU ever thought you solved the problem but you only cured a symptom & didn't fix the root cause?
Do you need both brains to make a good business decision?
Answer: Yes, of course.
Creativity requires whole-brain thinking; right-brain imagination, artistry and intuition, plus left-brain logic and planning.
Whole-brain thinking provides you with a strategic roadmap for creativity, problem-solving, innovation, and
transformation.
Is critical thinking more important than creative thinking?
Answer: They both are! They’re two sides of the same coin.
Leaders or managers must have both critical and creative thought. To solve problems leaders must think deductively and rationally (critically) whereas in other instances you need to think expansively and innovatively (creatively). If teams approach all problems from a purely rational, deductive manner, they’ll never exceed previous levels of achievement. Conversely, if teams approach all problems creatively, they’ll never understand why something was not working and be able to take corrective action. Many problems require a blend of the two approaches. To focus on developing one and ignoring the other not only risks ineffective problem solving but it runs contrary to what people intuitively understand – they need both.
WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND
