Creative Approaches to Problem Solving

Want to try and create change in a complex environment? Struggle to find engaging ways to solve problems and collaborate effectively with everyone involved? Then our creative approaches to problem solving toolkit could be what you need.

With 25 tried and tested methods our toolkit groups methods according to five objectives:

• Gaining insight and input to help inform decision-making
• Seeking new perspectives to spark alternative thinking
• Reframing a problem to open up new ways of looking at it
• Harnessing new ideas to brainstorm different solutions
• Prioritising solutions to make decisions about how to move forward.

In this workshop we’ll explain more about our creative approaches to problem solving toolkit and you’ll have the chance to try a method out in a safe space.

Join us for a creative and fun online session, involving some out of the box thinking. 

• Learn about our creative approaches to problem solving toolkit, including when and how you might use it.
• Try one of our creative methods that you can take back to your work place.

Anyone interested in trying to do things a bit differently at work.

• Creative ice breaker
• Introduction to the toolkit
• ‘Think like’ brand activity (in breakout rooms)
• Sharing back as a group
• Close session

We provide captions for all our online events. 

We can also provide reading materials for this event in advance or provide a silent reflection room for those who do not want to do group work. Please let us know in advance if you would like either of these. 

If you need any other adjustments to help you to participate please let us know using the form when you register or email Annika Patni.

We plan to run this event every 3–4 months, so if this date and time doesn’t suit you, keep an eye on our events listing for the next one.
