Skillshare Breakfast #13: Creative confidence [members only]

Today, everybody wants (and needs) to be creative, companies look for creativity as most demanded skill and surely it’s at the root of any innovation.

Nevertheless, no other skill seems that elusive, that vaguely defined and that often misunderstood as creativity. This leads to people regularly opting out of “being creative” or feeling uncomfortable to talk about them being creative.
Understanding what creativity is (and what not) and re-experiencing your creative confidence can help you to sharpen your creative mind as a starting point for innovation, change and a richer life.

This is what will happen

Creativity and design are key skillsets for the 21st century. We’ll start with an intro about the concept of creativity (and the parallels to design).
Next, we’ll flex our creative muscles in various short exercises. The aim is to let you
(re-)experience applied creativity and try basic approaches. Eventually we reflect on ways on how to integrate some of the approaches into our daily routine and hone a creative lifestyle.
