Would you believe me if I told you that over our lives, over the decades, we’ve started to hide the true creative selves that we were born with?

Sounds a little oversimplified and overwhelming, but know this: EVERYONE is creative.

We’re all talking about defining the future of work at this moment in history. That represents a giant leap for our creative thinking in the face of an arch-villain – Omicron. In 1992, NASA was looking for a way to “effectively measure the creative potential of their rocket scientists and engineers”. Dr. George Land and Dr. Beth Jarman developed a test for them, which was designed to identify the capacity for creativity within individuals.

They found that while children at the age of 5 were 98% ‘creative geniuses’, by the age of 21, only 2% of us retain it.

That is staggering information, especially for the workplace.

If you, like many, are secretly looking for a one-size-fits-all resource to support your talent in a mid-pandemic world, the answer is probably this: help them find avenues to rebuild their creativity.

It will pay exponential rewards.

Watch this quick video to see how exercising your creativity muscles can help you get miles ahead of your business competition.
