This was an in-house project promoting our upcoming training programs.

Foundations of Applied Imagination
This program focuses on the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) Process, the research-based gold standard of creativity methods. It is a proven method for approaching a problem or a challenge in an imaginative and innovative way. It’s a tool that helps people re-define the problems, come up with breakthrough ideas, and then put those ideas into action. Alex Osborn and Sidney Parnes conducted extensive research on the steps that are involved when people solve problems, the result of which is the 6 step process.

FourSight
The FourSight assessment helps people build effective teams and supports innovation by providing insight into individual Creative Problem Solving styles and how those styles interact. Individuals will discover their own preference as a Clarifier, Ideator, Developer, or Implementer, and learn how this affects their energy, enjoyment, and productivity throughout the CPS process.
