Now, more than ever, this one skill is crucial for adding true value to your work.
by Dave Osgood, Senior Partner
The world is changing. Automation is coming after jobs…is yours next? Maybe you’ve seen the headlines:
There’s no doubt that automation will affect human jobs. But is it all doom and gloom? And how will this increasing automation affect workers of the future?
Automation = Opportunities
It sounds gloomy, doesn’t it, 1 in 5 jobs? However, despite the probability of job losses, there will be an overall increase in certain jobs. In particular, jobs that require cognitive flexibility, critical thinking, and creativity skills are set to grow.
Creativity, in particular, will be an increasingly valuable skill. Even experts agree that creativity is now more important than intelligence. Those who develop and refine creativity skills will prosper, while those who don’t will be left behind.
If you can’t think in new ways about problems and opportunities, you’ll be stuck in the past. Tomorrow’s winners will be creators, not just implementers. They will be pattern recognizers, not just observers….meaning-makers, not just number crunchers.
This is why creativity training should be a mandatory element of your talent development strategy. Where to start? Creative Focus.
Creative Focus® equips your people with the tools to grow your organization’s creative potential. In our unique 1-day workshop, you’ll learn how to harness the power of the creative process - alone, or as part of a team. We will help you set in motion the conditions that help creativity flourish, through conscious use of Creative Focus principles and tools. Since it was first launched, we’ve been on a continuous search to add concepts, approaches and tools that equip each person with the skills to unlock their own creative potential.
The result is more curious, flexible, adaptable problem solvers equipped with skills that grow and sustain a culture of focused creativity in your organization.
