THE CREATOR MINDSET: HOW TO BE MORE CREATIVE AND INNOVATIVE AT WORK

According to a recent study by the World Economic Forum, the #1 in-demand skill at work today is creativity and innovation. Yet there are so few places where people can learn actual creativity and innovation they can use at work immediately.

In a groundbreaking new keynote, Nir helps attendees who think they are not creative or innovative to learn how to be innovative. It turns out that creativity is a skill that anyone can learn. You just need to learn how to become more creative.
This is not about art or painting or sculpture or dance. This is a repeatable workplace creativity and innovation that anyone can learn.
Attendees will learn skills such as:
• Little Victories
• Digital Detox
• Choosing Positivity
• Real Listening

And see how viewing the world as it can be, not as it is, will yield the innovative power of The Creator Mindset.

• Staff and leadership learn 10 fresh new ways creativity can boost performance and profit
• Attendees leave with actionable plans for effective growth — right away
• Attendees receive useful tips on how creativity helps deal with change

OPPORTUNITY IN CHANGE: HOW TO USE INNOVATION DURING TIMES OF CHANGE

During the last 18 months, the world has minted more millionaires than in any time ever in history. What do those millionaires know that others don’t?
Well, it turns out there is one thing that helps more than anything during crisis and adversity:
And that is creativity.
In a thoroughly original and captivating keynote, Nir discusses how creativity is the perfect antidote to the COVID 19 crisis and how you can turn adversity into opportunity at work today.
Nir prepares attendees to have 10 solid items at their disposal anytime they encounter difficulty and change. Almost like a Swiss army knife of tools ready for whatever may come. And the foundation of these 10 specific tools are always deeply rooted in creativity & innovation.

HOW TO HIRE EQUITABLY: DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION AND CREATIVITY AT WORK

In a radical departure from most Diversity, Equity and Inclusion talks, Nir focuses on creativity a nd innovation — not the blame game — to help companies organically diversity.

A recent study of 500 organizations has found that every 1% increase in gender and racial diversity is correlated with a 3% - 9% increase in sales revenue!

WOW!

So today -- more than ever -- hiring a diverse workforce is super important!

But here’s the catch: Most people simply don't know how to do it. It's not taught in schools or at the workplace. But it turns out that anyone can learn how to hire equitably and responsibly to welcome inclusion and diversity into the workplace.

Because when we hire creatively, we hire equitably.

Learning Objectives:

candidates
