3. Arts-Based Learning Improves Crucial
Business Skills
Arts-based learning uses artistic skills, processes, and
experiences as a way to foster crucial business
requirements such as creativity, collaboration, and
innovation. Activities from a variety of artistic disciplines
including dance, painting, poetry, and filmmaking can be
employed for this purpose. For example, a company may
use a group painting activity as a way to facilitate
collaboration between group members. Arts-based learning
is an excellent business tool because it engages the whole
brain and allows a person's natural skills to surface.
