Most people are born creative. As children, we revel in imaginary play, ask outlandish questions, draw blobs and call them dinosaurs. But over time, because of socialization and formal education, a lot of us start to stifle those impulses. We learn to be warier of judgment, more cautious, more analytical. The world seems to divide into “creatives” and “noncreatives,” and too many people consciously or unconsciously resign themselves to the latter category.
And yet we know that creativity is essential to success in any discipline or industry. According to a recent IBM survey of chief executives around the world, it’s the most sought-after trait in leaders today. No one can deny that creative thinking has enabled the rise and continued success of countless companies, from start-ups like Facebook and Google to stalwarts like Procter & Gamble and General Electric.
In this presentation you will discover why you lost your creative confidence—the natural ability to come up with new ideas and the courage to try them out, and how to restore it back.
The presentation will give the definition of creative thinking and will explain in detail the different creative thinking techniques that are practiced by the entrepreneurs.

Creativity isn't a discipline for just designers. Ideas and creativity should come from everyone regardless of their role. Creativity can be taught and I've been heavily inspired by Tina Seelig and Tony Schwartz's presentations at the 2013 Behance ideas conference. They both provided jaw-dropping looks into how they see the creative process, which I will never look at the same way again.
That journey inspired me to prepare this presentation which is my attempt at teaching and spreading this infectious process to others who might not understand how creativity works or can find use from such information.
Unique solutions come from innovative problem solving. Having a framework is critical.
Insight. First find and define the problem.
Saturation. This is the information gathering phase chock full of research. Most designers hate this phase because it isn’t “creative” in their mind. From my perspective, the designers I respect most are all about saturating themselves in data and inspiration.
Incubation. This is where you walk away from ideas and thinking altogether, which Schwartz refers to as “thinking aside.” He explains that when you shut your mind off, your brain is able to spark the best creativity, which is why ideas pop in your head during a shower, while walking in nature or when you are dreaming. This is often an area I totally ignored since I’ve never really had the luxury of time, but one I’ll be looking to learn and apply in my ever-changing creative process.
Illumination. This is one step we are likely all familiar with. The infamous a-ha moment that stops you in your tracks.
Verification. This is the point where things start coming together; the part where you make it real. This part reminds me of the great scientists of history having an idea, testing it and learning from it.
Learn, modify and repeat. That being said, creativity isn’t supposed to be easy, as Cal Newport points out, it takes a level of deep work and focused intent to develop skills and solve problems. Malcolm Gladwell talked about 10,000 hours being the time it takes to master a task. Nonetheless, we have scientific data to back how the brain learns things.
Ideas are nothing without execution.

This thought provoking and interactive session will explore a range of creative techniques and methods of ensuring that the most suitable innovation is achieved as a result, arming delegates with tools, approaches and a re-invigorated creative outlook to take back to the workplace.

New Product Development was a 3-day public workshop for managers offered for many years through what is now UW-Madison’s Center for Professional and Executive Development (CPED). Since CPED has modified its mission to focus on leadership and management training, this and other marketing classes have been discontinued. Therefore I am providing this for your individual education.

This is a general introduction to market-based strategic thinking and planning.
Strategic Market-Based Planning was a 3-day public workshop for managers offered for many years through what is now UW-Madison’s Center for Professional and Executive Development (CPED). Five years ago I posted the slides from the course and it was consistently one of my top viewed and downloaded presentations. I updated that content and replaced it with this slide deck.
May 2015 marked the final offering of Product Manager Imperatives at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Center for Professional and Executive Education. After 40 years of running these open enrollment corporate workshops on product management, UW-CPED has decided to focus exclusively on management and leadership training. This presentation is the condensed version of the final offering of Product Manager Imperatives. For a version of this presentation with links to videos, tutorials and other tidbits to demonstrate key points, look for this presentation at BrainSnacksCafe.
Adapted from a multi-day corporate B2B workshop (plus selected MBA modules) on marketing management. Includes the marketing planning process, tactical marketing, value creation and delivery, and integrated marketing communications.
Business planning requires hindsight, insight and foresight. Marketing research and environmental scans provide hindsight, their analysis provides insight, and linking those to future trends provides foresight. Here are a few thought-starters related to developing foresight.

https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.
Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
