Creative Problem Solving Institute 2018: Master Creative Thinking

At the Creative Problem Solving Institute, we believe that EVERYONE IS CREATIVE and CREATIVE SKILLS CAN BE LEARNED AND ENHANCED.

Join us to discover a proven process that can help you be a more creative trainer, incorporate creativity into your learning programs, and apply creative thinking to your training design, development, and delivery.

Are you and your organization training your workforce for today’s volatile, complex and uncertain environment? CEOs identify problem‑solving, creativity and innovation, leadership, and adaptability as the skills battleground. PwC’s recent CEO survey described these four soft skills as the most important, yet difficult to find.

“Since my first exposure to CPS in 2012, it has changed almost every aspect of my life; I use it daily in my personal life and, most profoundly, I’ve used it extensively in my professional life. I’ve used it to develop new, sustainable programs – creative consumers for research, a ‘culture crew’ of 100+ passionate individuals interested in changing our corporate culture.”
