319 - The System Behind Scalable Creativity with Amy Climer

The greatest myth of creativity? It doesn't fall from the sky into our laps like Isaac Newton’s apple! Creativity is far from that romantic, eureka moment, but rather it is messy, cultivated, and curiosity made manifest.

Luckily for us, Amy Climer has created a system to go about finding this elusive, but valuable novelty with intention – consistently and at scale. A TEDx speaker,  trainer and author of the book ‘Deliberate Creative Teams: How to Lead for Innovative Results’, Amy’s work is a creative panacea for leaders, managers and facilitators in search of better ideas.

From positive feedback fertilisers, to creative learnings from Thomas Edison, she shares her process and the ingredients you’ll need to succeed.

Find out about:

• The three pillars of creative teams: purpose, dynamics and process
• Why conflict is a necessary means to recognise and embrace difference
• Why leaders must intentionally design for collaboration, or risk jeopardising the collective
• How to cultivate the internal team conditions to allow for creativity
