Creativity: Gift, Necessary Skill, or Superpower?
Many people don’t consider themselves creative or, they don't see a place for creativity in their work. Yet creativity is an essential skill for future success. The truth is that everyone can be creative in their own way. It's a gift that makes us human. With practice, creativity can become more than a gift or a skill, it can become your superpower for problem solving and continuous improvement.
Creativity is rarely done alone. Together, we built a unique relationship based on our discussions about creativity, a relationship that builds on our individual voices. Come join Ruth Stanley and the authors of "Your Creativity Sprint" for guidance and practice at the Just-in-Time Café on June 22 at 11 AM PT/2 PM Eastern.
Agenda:
1. Interactive Poll on Creativity
2. Creativity as a skill (What it is, why we need it)
3. Practice Breakout: Getting into the Zone Challenge
3. Creativity as a superpower (Types of creativity)
4. Practice Breakout: Hero Challenge
5. Q&A

Meet
Tracy O'Rourke
Two things about my work intrigue me. I love helping clients solve their culture puzzle. What’s working well? What’s not? What norms hold the current culture in place? How can we understand the root causes behind why the culture is the way it is? Then we work to build an intentional culture.
At the individual level, I love the “Aha” moment when people realize that this stuff works. I love it when they’re hungry to apply the concepts even more. These are my true rewards.

I’m a translator. I love taking complicated topics and deciphering them, so they make sense to myself and everyone around me. I love collaborating with clients and colleagues to build a problem-solving culture together. I get a huge sense of satisfaction working with others to overcome seemingly intractable organizational barriers.
I get a kick out of sharing what I’ve learned so the people I work with don’t have to struggle quite so much for so long or at least not as much as I did. I love the moment when a student no longer needs me.
“I haven’t failed. I just found 10,000 ways that didn’t work.” – Thomas Edison
