Creative Problem Solving ,[object Object]
Recent research indicates that only 5% of adults over the age of 20 years consider themselves to be ‘creative’. Between the ages of 5 and 10 years 95% of children exhibit a strong tendency towards creativity.

Do any of the following sound familiar: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
From the ages of 10 to 18 education tends to concentrate on the absorption of information and on the development of memory skills. Imagination is often stifled in order to improve concentration skills. In effect we learn to ‘blinker’ ourselves.  If the previous statements seem familiar, think again about each of them for a moment. How valid are these statements ? ,[object Object]
Isn’t it time to remove those blinkers? How Creative are you? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
