3 Keys to Increasing 
Your Value While Being 
the Creative Leader 
Theresa Bullard, P.h.D.
Creativity is at the 
foundation of 
innovation and is 
now recognized as 
a key factor to 
success.
Creative Leaders are those who foster an 
environment of imagination and are able to 
lead, inspire and drive innovation within 
their organization.
Here are 3 Keys to Increasing Your 
Value While Being the Creative Leader:
#1 Imagine
Innovation happens through “Leaps of Imagination”.
Everyone has the potential for a healthy 
imagination, and in fact, our survival and evolution 
depend on it.
This first key is critical to harnessing your consciousness 
and breaking through blocks to the creative flow.
Creative Leaders must be able to imagine new 
approaches to solving problems, breaking 
through obstacles, and planning the steps to 
take to see ideas to their full fruition.
Check out this FREE 12 Minute Video, with 3 
strategies for harnessing the power of your 
ability to Imagine and go Beyond the Box.
#2 Interact
A Creative Leader is open to the ideas of 
others and encourages interaction amongst 
those they lead.
Often when we hit a wall, it is because 
we are not seeing past our own 
blind-spots or limited perspective.
When you have others to bounce ideas off of, 
who also understand where you are coming 
from, then the interaction of parts becomes 
greater than any one can achieve individually.
Interaction will help 
boost your work to a 
new level!
Interaction and interconnectivity is a key theme 
in the Quantum Domain. Nothing is truly isolated, 
but rather entangled with others.
Emergence of truly new ideas and approaches 
comes when we allow for interaction and open 
exchange of information with other parts, 
people, forums, teams, etc.
When you allow and interact, then you make room for 
synergy to play a part, making the final result greater than 
what you could have imagined or accomplished alone.
Let go of having to control all 
the variables and learn to be 
more flexible and adaptable. " 
When you do, you will feel a 
huge weight lift off your 
shoulders, reducing stress, 
and allowing you to tap more 
into the flow around you.
Be bolstered and stimulated by the ideas of others 
and allow for something new to emerge.
#3 Operating at 
the Edge
Our “comfort zone” is the zone in which we 
feel most familiar and that we can “control” 
to some level.
" 
Creativity happens when we 
allow for Unconventional or 
Original approaches and ideas. It 
is outside the comfort zone 
where breakthroughs and 
magic occur.
Operating at the Edge is a mindset and 
attitude that a leader comes to embody. It is 
an attitude of thinking out of box, taking 
risks, being unconventional. It involves a 
mix of rebelliousness tempered with 
discernment and tradition.
Qualities to cultivate include:
Enthusiasm and Passion
This usually comes from having 
a strong vision that motivates 
and is something you want to 
dedicate yourself to.
Courage
Being willing to take Leaps and make risks, while 
staying Focused, Persistent, Disciplined, and Hard 
Working in order to carry the creative work through to 
its completion, and having to courage not to give up."
The important part is “Never giving up 
on your dreams”.
Operating at The Edge is also about learning to 
conduct your life at the point of transition between 
the world of practical things (classical reality) and the 
realm of extraordinary possibilities (quantum reality)
At Quantum Leap Alchemy, we are 
dedicated to sharing breakthrough 
strategies for helping you become a 
more innovative and creative leader.
