Breakthrough Thinking Workshop

This Breakthrough Thinking Workshop is based on our experience of delivering a series of highly successful in-house and open programmes for a variety of organisations over many years. It contains everything required by an independent or in-house facilitator to work with a group of up to 16 delegates on building skills in creativity and innovation, and applying them to real-world problems.

The licence allows for unlimited reproduction of the participant workbook and unlimited use of the exercise materials (which only require supplementing with some basic stationery items).

This workshop contains 7 hours of activity, and is planned as a full day session designed which includes fun, engaging, serious and challenging activities aimed at helping delegates find new solutions to old problems, and to find new applications for existing knowledge.

The Workshop objectives include:

• To understand the difference between creativity and innovation
• To recognise the stages in an innovation process and the contributions that individuals make
• To practise a range of creative thinking techniques to generate new ideas
• To apply creative and innovative thinking principles in practical problem-solving
• To understand and use questioning techniques in coaching for innovation
• To use the techniques to work on real-life problems identifies and selected by the group

Use this workshop to help intact teams move forward as part of a team development programme; to add another creative and fun module to an existing management or leadership development programme; to help groups who feel they have little or no creative or innovation skills!

The workshop materials include:

• Full facilitator manual with step by step instructions to run each session, including working on a real-life problem solving issue for the group
• A Power Point presentation to lead the group through the full Workshop day
• A delegate workbook file to print out and issue for each delegate to use during the workshop and on their return to work
• A CD containing all materials for delagate use
• Sufficient activity materials to work with a group of 16 deleagtes for a full day

The activity materials can be supplemented to work with larger groups - contact sales@rsvpdesign.co.uk for further details.
