Choose Happiness @ Work For Success

Research shows the link between an engaged and happy workforce and improved business performance. There is more and more evidence through research and practice that what organizations want like high customer satisfaction, innovative products, profitability and growth comes from the most important asset you can nurture– engagement and happiness at work. The engagement metric appears on business scorecards in many organizations as a critical measure of human capital performance.

Happiness is more than a by-product. It is a source of success:

Happier employees are more productive.
Happier employees are healthier people.
Happier employees don’t leave as often.

Breakthrough Creativity

Creativity is a skill that everyone has to some degree. Truly creative people think of valuable and practical ways of doing things, and they solve problems on a regular basis by employing creative thought. That is the kind of creativity that is exceedingly helpful in business and an incredible transferable skill for anyone who can master it.

It’s not IF you’re creative – It’s HOW you’re creative.

What do you picture when you envision someone who is creative? Perhaps an artist or inventor? Sure, these people are visibly creative. But the fact is that everyone is creative. Just as there are multiple styles of intelligence, there are multiple styles of creativity that produce different yet equally valuable results.

Organizations that integrate creativity into their DNA can achieve significant benefits, including better team performance, increased flexibility, greater retention rates, creative problem solving – and a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

This workshop challenges individuals and teams to take action and develop a stronger sense of creative talent. Based on Carl Jung’s well-known personality theory, participants identifies dominant and auxiliary preferences from eight creative styles: Adventurer, Diplomat, Explorer, Inventor, Navigator, Pilot, Poet, and Visionary.

Learning Outcomes

Understand creativity and the impact of creative talent differences
Identify one’s creative talents and recognize the contributions of each style
Improve problem-solving and inventive thinking capabilities
Assess team member creative talents and construct a team profile
Create an action plan for individuals and teams to become more creative.

Audience

Suitable for all employees.
