The most innovative contributions spring from the creative chemistry of a team and the blending of everyone’s ideas and concepts. Denise and Jessie will share their story of how they came to create this presentation together, leveraging their collective wisdom and creative synergy to co-create. Their process of recognizing and removing personal creative blocks, connecting and communicating, combining ideas using play, and constructing an environment that supports collaboration reveals effective methods for tapping into collective creative brilliance. You’ll learn to capitalize on the super-linearity of creativity to create better together.

126. “Creativity is social….Instead (of
brainstorming) you need “magic circles,”
small teams of people who trust each
other, are familiar with each other, and
play together.”
– Bruce Nussbaum, Creativity Intelligence
147. "The creative process involves many
conversations…conversations with
co-creators and colleagues,
conversations with oneself…."
– The team at the Dubberly Design Office (emphasis added)
162. “Collaboration flourishes when
there is a willingness to embrace
new practices and thinking.”
- Nic Evans, “How to Collaborate: The Creative & the Practical”
181. “Only a reason has the magic to
ignite, in the void, the spark; that
comes to make a life feel that it
has been more than accidents of
fate colliding with chance.”
– Umair Haque, “How to Create Your Reason”
191. “There can be no doubt: creativity
gets killed much more o en than
it gets supported.”
– Teresa Amabile, Harvard Business School professor and Innovation
expert
222. “Co-creation needs externalized
material. Sharing the fuzzy, early,
raw concept gives your (team)
material to work with, to respond
to and evolve.”
– Stefan Klocek, “Be er Together”
