The Need For Creativity & Innovation Training Courses
The modern world is changing at an increasingly faster pace. Developments in information, communications, and biotechnologies are pushing the boundaries of possibility so that new products and services are appearing at a faster and faster rate.
Globalisation and deregulation of markets have led to increased competition, and the development of the internet as a business tool has reduced the barriers to entry in many industries and markets.
World economic turmoil has increased uncertainty and reduced trade.
This increasing pace of change and increasing competition are very real threats to all organisations whether private or public sector.
To succeed – indeed, to even survive – businesses have to be flexible and to be able to respond quickly to their changing environment. This flexibility and speed of response are strongly dependent on creativity. It is through creativity and innovation that new ways of working are developed that ensure survival, profitability and success.
To become more creative and innovative, organisations need to train their managers and other employees in creative thinking and creative problem solving techniques.
Creativity training will provide them with new skills and knowledge so that they are better placed to solve problems facing the business and exploit opportunities offered by the fast changing environment.
We offer two courses to help organisations build their creativity and innovation capability in Singapore/Asia:

New ways of thinking are required in today’s world in order to develop ideas that lead to new or improved products, services or processes.
Approaches to “problem” solving or issue resolution need to be more creative and at the same time, more structured. A “problem” in this sense is any situation in or any issue facing an organisation that needs to be resolved, whether it is the need to develop something new, or enhance an existing product, service or process, or resolve people-related issues.
