Creativity techniques

Full of ideasNew pathsInspiring

You may be familiar with this: the group is sitting together, the problem is on the table – and then brainstorming is called out. Three people talk. The rest wait. In the end, there are five ideas on the flipchart that everyone already knew.

This is not due to a lack of creative potential. It’s a lack of method.

Teams and managers are often faced with questions such as:

How do we get beyond the same old ideas?

Which method suits which phase of the idea generation process?

How do we create a framework in which everyone dares to contribute unfinished ideas?

How do we translate creative ideas into concrete, actionable measures? This requires more than a whiteboard and colorful post-its. It needs structure – and the knowledge that methods follow goals, not the other way around.

We train creativity techniques in a practical way – with real practice situations, direct experience of each phase and the knowledge of when which tool is appropriate.

Typical elements of our creativity technique training:

  • The 4 phases of creative processes: Orientation, Generation, Optimization, Implementation
  • Specific methods per phase (e.g. brainwalking, mind mapping, Disney technique, PMI, headstand method)
  • Know your own thinking preferences and use them productively in the team
  • Evaluation and prioritization of ideas – from the raw idea to the implementation concept
  • Designing creative workshop formats for everyday work

The result is not only more methodological knowledge – but teams that regularly produce better ideas and know how to go about it.

  • Teams that want to get more out of idea rounds
  • Managers who actively shape creative processes in their organization
  • Facilitators and trainers who want to use creative methods safely
  • A clear picture of which method fits when and why
  • Teams that think beyond the obvious together
  • creative processes that lead to usable results
  • More innovative strength – not just in training, but in everyday life
