In the current and future health care workplace creativity is not an option; it is and will be a survival skill. Leaders are constantly being confronted with new problems, new projects, and new issues that, by definition, require new answers. The ability to see new – as well as old –problems, projects, and issues in a fresh, imaginative way is vital for individuals at all levels in an organization.
Creativity plays a fundamental role in our thought processes, leadership practices, problem solving, and decision making; it is a key element in helping us to increase our managerial efficiency, productivity, versatility, and effectiveness.
This presentation is designed to assist individuals to avoid a negative mindset, to empower them to think creatively when confronting current challenges and issues, and to look at both new and old problems in very new ways.
The webinar incorporates the most current thinking on creativity, is based on the realities of the health care workplace, and offers practical, hands-on exercises for improving one’s creative powers.
