Creativity Workshops
with Georgianna Krieger A Creativity Workshop for Everyone is a thinking exercises program for all kinds of professionals. Whether your team is directly involved in producing creative content, or you want to support a culture of thinking outside of the box, this workshop provides a fun and interactive learning experience for teams. This series of group exercises is designed to help adults exercise and grow their creative muscles. The activities can be more geared towards visual thinkers or verbal thinkers depending on the who the participants are. Exercises may include verbal, visual and musical thinking. We’ll talk about what creativity is and how to develop a culture of rewarding creative risks. Additionally we touch upon how to turn brainstorming into a cultivated concept. Contact Georgianna to inquire and set up a creativity workshop for your team. |
