Creative Collaboration
Half or Full Day Workshop
Collaboration is at the heart of the innovative workplace. But in real life ideas and knowledge do not seamlessly work their way from silo to silo within organizations or among organizations. Yet most organisations could serve their clients better, integrate service delivery and achieve more effective outcomes if they knew how to collaborate more effectively externally as well as internally.
Emotional Intelligence for Leaders
Half Day Workshop
Leaders driving innovation benefit from insight into their own and others’ responses to the changes and expectations evoked through the process of innovation. Research has also shown that employees who are more emotionally intelligent are reported as being more innovative and creative in the workplace. An understanding of EI is an essential component in implementing an innovation strategy.
Innovation for Manufacturers and SMEs
2 day face to face program delivered 8 weeks apart + 7 week eCourse
Manufacturers and SMEs are the engine of our economy. But productivity in this sector has slowed in the first decade of the 21st Century. Intensity of work and increasing capital investment no longer yield the same dividends. Similarly competing on the basis of quality or price is not enough.
INNOVATION PODS™: A facilitated process for sustained innovation
Innovation Pods™ are the ideal context to engage people in creative thinking and problem-solving around issues identified as priorities.
Innovation Skills for the Public Sector
1 or 2 day Workshop
This workshop shows public sector leaders and emerging leaders how to innovate productively on two different levels. Firstly at the broader strategic level that leads to a shift in organizational mindset and culture and secondly the tactical level by administering ‘baby steps’ to innovation that leads to continuous improvement. Based on her ground-breaking, internationally acclaimed doctoral research, Dr Yashin-Shaw guides people through a sustainable process of creative problem-solving and innovation that will ultimately improve the productivity, efficiency and sustainability of public sector organisations and teams.
Thinking Beyond Boundaries
1 Day Workshop
This workshop is designed to unlock the enormous potential stored within all of us. Dr Yashin-Shaw delivers a completely new tool for thinking creatively based on her ground-breaking PhD research. It incorporates some of the well known elements traditionally used in creative problem-solving such as brainstorming, perspective-shifting and synthesising but goes beyond these to place them in a broader context.
Thinking Leadership
Half or Full Day Workshop
Good questioning which leads to reflective thinking is a powerful way of enhancing performance because it requires people to examine their own practices and helps them to identify the gaps in their understanding for themselves. So it is a very empowering way of developing people because they take ownership and responsibility for their professional development, their skill development and ultimately therefore their career development.
