“Going into this training, I had always felt like I had nothing to contribute to the creative process responsible for forming new ideas or products. I had thought that this was fine, and what I lacked in creativity I made up for in my strong ability to execute and I should just follow what my strengths were. What this training made me realize was that anyone can be creative and contribute valuable ideas but more importantly, it provided the skills necessary to develop ideas AND reinforced those skills through application assignments. I think the last part of that sentence was the most important part for me, I find that myself, like most people, learn most effectively when skills are used and applied. This process taught me that I could be creative and still execute and that I could directly influence others to do the same.”

“One of my favorite things about the course and content is the ways it challenges you to think – but that in that it removes all barriers. You have to think about how you would bring this to market if there weren’t any limitations. That kind of thinking is freeing and helps you get excited about the opportunity. I feel like every time I have applied the training I have found myself thinking “this will really work – it is a good business idea.”

You have to think about how you would bring this to market if there weren’t any limitations. That kind of thinking is freeing and helps you get excited about the opportunity. I feel like every time I have applied the training I have found myself thinking “this will really work – it is a good business idea.”

“Going into this training, I had always felt like I had nothing to contribute to the creative process responsible for forming new ideas or products. I had thought that this was fine, and what I lacked in creativity I made up for in my strong ability to execute and I should just follow what my strengths were. What this training made me realize was that anyone can be creative and contribute valuable ideas but more importantly, it provided the skills necessary to develop ideas AND reinforced those skills through application assignments. I think the last part of that sentence was the most important part for me, I find that myself, like most people, learn most effectively when skills are used and applied. This process taught me that I could be creative and still execute and that I could directly influence others to do the same.”

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT
We’ve experienced a tremendous amount of change around us during the last 36 Months. What each of these situations have in common, is not necessarily what happens around you or to you, but rather, how you will respond, recover and lead others through it.
In each of these scenarios, we’ve always found the collective mindset and most successful results when you do the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing to pull through it. You must learn how to innovate under stress AND execute well. When we focus on these items, you can then recover from these disruptions.
So get ready!
You will need to innovate under stress to solve problems. You will need to look to the future to identify disruptions for your industry, your organization, your customers and yes, even your suppliers.
